I will be out of town next week, and so wanted to provide you my initial thoughts.
• The piece is superb.
• If anything, the Director may wish to add a sentence or two in his conclusion about the FBI's obligations
more generally. In other words, something not specifically about this case, but about what the FBI aims
to do in all of our cases. He could do this after the first sentence in his last paragraph. For example,
something like:
'The American people entrust the FBI with impartially investigating all matters of crime involving people
from all walks of life. We take that obligation extremely seriously, and" I can assure you that this
investigation was done competently, honestly, and independently. No outside influence of any
kind was brought to bear. I know there were many opinions expressed by people who were not
part of the investigation — including people in government - but none of that mattered to us.
Opinions are irrelevant, and they were all uninformed by insight into our investigation, because
we did the investigation in a professional way. Only facts matter, and the FBI found them here
in an entirely apolitical and professional way. I couldn't be prouder to be part of this
organization.
I suggest this only to emphasize the point that this investigation was conducted in a manner consistent
SJC000028
with the fairness aims of all of our investigations, (i.e., no one is above the law, etc.).
• The piece contains information that indicates the Secretary did not meet federal record requirements.
Before deciding on the final wording of such information, the Director may wish to have someone study
the impact his statements could have on any/all administrative inquiries relative to federal record
obligations. I suggest this only so he's aware of any potential fallout in that regard. I assume such
administrative inquiries aren't really a big deal, but if I was him I'd just want to be certain before
deciding on the final wording.
• I saw two typos on page 4, which I highlighted in red and yellow.
Thank you for sharing the below with me.

Folks:
The Director composed the below straw man in an effort to compose what a "final" statement might look like in
the context of a press conference. This was really more of an exercise for him to get his thoughts on the matter
in order, and not any kind of decision about venue, strategy, product, etc.
The Director asked me to share this with you four, but not any further . The only additional people who have
seen this draft are Jim Rybicki and Jim Baker. Please do not disseminate or discuss any further.
I do not know if the boss will want to discuss this at the Monday update but please review it before the meeting
just in case.

I’ve been trying to imagine what it would look like if I decided to do an FBI
only press event to close out our work and hand the matter to DOJ. To help
shape our discussions of whether that, or something different, makes sense, I
have spent some time crafting what I would say, which follows. In my
imagination, I don’t see me taking any questions. Here is what it might look
like:
Good afternoon folks. I am here to give you an update on our investigation of
Secretary Clinton’s use of a private email system, which began in late August mid-
Julv .
After a tremendous amount of work, the FBI has completed its investigation and
has referred the case to the Department of Justice for a prosecutive decision. What
I would like to do today is tell you three things: (1) what we did; (2) what we
found; (3) what we have recommended to DOJ.
But I want to start by thanking the many agents, analysts, technologists, and other
FBI employees who did work of extraordinary quality in this case. Once you have
a better sense of how much we have done, you will understand why I am so
grateful and proud of their efforts.
So, first: what we have done over the last eight months.
The investigation began as a referral from the Intelligence Community Inspector
General in connection with Secretary Clinton’s use of a ^rivate[email server during
her time as Secretary of State, focused on whether classified information was
transmitted on that private system.
Our investigation focused on whether there is evidence that classified information
was improperly stored or transmitted on that private system, in violation of a
federal statute that makes it a felony to mishandle classified information either
intentionally or in a grossly negligent way, or a second statute that makes it a
misdemeanor to knowingly remove classified information from appropriate
systems or storage facilities.
Commented [pi]: Consider whether it is more appropriate to
call this a "personal" or "privately-owned" email server. "Private"
may denote a commercial email service, such as gmail or hotmail.
Use of these private commercial services was widespread at State
before and during her tenure.
Consistent with our counterintelligence responsibilities, we have also investigated
to determine whether there is evidence of computer intrusion in connection with
SJC000031
the private email server by any foreign power, or hackers on behalf of a foreign
power.
I have so far used the singular term, “email server,” in describing the referral that
began our investigation. It turns out to have been more complicated than that.
Secretary Clinton used several different servers and providers administrators of
those servers during her four years at the State Department, and used numerous
mobile devices to view and send email on that private domain. As new server s and
equipment s and providers were employed, older servers were taken out of service,
stored, and decommissioned in various ways. Piecing all of that back together to
gain as full an understanding as possible of the ways in which private email was
used for government work has been a painstaking undertaking, requiring thousands
of hours of effort.
For example, when one of Secretary Clinton’s original private servers was
decommissioned in 2013xx, the email software was removed. Doing that didn’t
remove the email content, but it was like removing the frame from a huge finished
jigsaw puzzle and dumping the pieces on the floor. The effect was that millions of
email fragments end up unsorted in the server’s un-used - or “slack” — space. We
searched went through all of it to see what was there, and what parts of the puzzle
could be put back together.
FBI investigators have also read all 34,000 of the approximately 30,000 emails
provided by Secretary Clinton to the State Department in spring 2015 December
2014 . Where an email was assessed as possibly containing classified information,
the FBI referred the email to ^fre- any U.S. government agency that was the-aTikely |
“owner” of the information in the email so that agency could make a determination
as to whether the email contained classified information at the time it was sent or
received, or whether there was reason to classify the email now, even if its content
was not classified at the time it was sent (this is the process sometimes referred to
as “up classifying”).
From that group of 34,000 30,000 emails that had been returned to the State
Department in late 2014#, the FBI sent xxxx emails to agencies for classification
determinations. Of those, xxxx have been determined by the owning agency to
contain classified information at the time they were sent or received. Xxxx of
those contained information that was Top Secret at the time they were sent; xxxx
contained Secret information at the time; and xxxx contained Confidential
information. Separate from those, a total of xxxx additional emails were “up

classified” to make them Secret or Confidential; the information in those had not
been classified at the time the emails were sent.
The FBI also discovered xxxx- several thousand work-related emails that were not
in the group of 31.000 30.000 that were returned by Secretary Clinton to State in
2014#. We found those additional emails in a variety of ways. Some had been
deleted over the years and we found traces of them on devices that supported or
were connected to the private email domain. Others we found by reviewing the
archived government email accounts of people who had been government
employees at the same time as Secretary Clinton, including high-ranking officials
at other agencies, with whom a Secretary of State might naturally correspond. This
helped us recover work-related emails that were not among the 34,000 30,000
produced to State. Still others we recovered from the laborious review of the
millions of email fragments dumped into the slack space of the server
decommissioned in 2013xx.
All told, we found xxx^ thousands of emails that were not among those produced
to the State Department last year in late 2014 . Of those, we assessed that xxxx
possibly contained classified information at the time they were sent or received and
so we sent them to other government agencies for classification determinations.
To date, agencies have concluded that xxxx of those were classified at the time
they were sent or received, xxx at the Secret level and xxxx at the Confidential
level. There were no additional Top Secret emails found. Finally, xxxx none of
those we found have since been “up classified.”
I should add here that we found no evidence that any of the additional work-related
emails we found were intentionally deleted in an effort to conceal them. Our
assessment is that, like many users of private email accounts, Secretary Clinton
periodically deleted emails or emails were purged from the system when devices
were changed. Because she was not using a government account, there was no
archiving of her emails, so it is not surprising that we discovered emails that were
not on Secretary Clinton’s system in 201 #4, when she produced the 34,000 30,000
emails to the State Department.
It could also be that some of the additional work-related emails we recovered were
among those deleted as “personal” by Secretary Clinton’s lawyers when they
reviewed and sorted her emails for production in 2014#. We have conducted
interviews and done technical examination to attempt to understand how that
sorting was done. Although we do not have complete visibility because we are not
fully able to reconstruct the electronic record of that sorting, we believe our
investigation has been sufficient to give us reasonable confidence there was no
intentional misconduct in connection with that sorting effort.
The lawyers doing the sorting for Secretary Clinton in 20145 did not individually
read the content of all of her tens of thousands of emails, as we did for those
available to us ; instead, they used search terms to try to find all work-related
emails among the reportedly more than 60,000 total emails remaining on Secretary
Clinton’s private system in 20154. It is highly likely their search terms missed
some work-related emails, and that we found them, for example, in the mailboxes
of other officials or in the slack space of a server. It is also likely that there are
other work-related emails that they did not produce to State and that we did not
find elsewhere, and that are now gone because they deleted all emails they did not
return to State, and the lawyers cleaned their devices in a such a way as to preclude
forensic recovery.
And, of course, in additional to our technical work, we interviewed many people,
from those involved in setting up and maintaining the various iterations of
Secretary Clinton’s private server to staff members with whom she corresponded
on email, to those involved in the email production to State, and finally, Secretary
Clinton herself.
Lastly, we have done extensive work with the assistance of our colleagues
elsewhere in the Intelligence Community to understand what indications there
might be of compromise by hostile actors in connection with the private email
operation.
That’s what we have done. Now let me tell you what we found.
Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues
intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is
evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive.
highly classified information. There is evidence to support a conclusion that
Secretary Clinton, and others, used the private email server in a manner that was
grossly negligent with respect to the handling of classified information. For
example, seven email chains concern matters that were classified at the TS/SAP
level when they were sent and received. These chains involved Secretary Clinton
both sending emails about those matters and receiving emails from others about the
same matters. There is evidence to support a conclusion that any reasonable
Formatted: Highlight
SJC000034
person in Secretary Clinton’s position, or in the position of those government
employees with whom she was corresponding about these matters, should have
known that an unclassified system was no place for such an email conversation.
Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues
intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is
evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive,
highly classified information.
Similarly, In addition to this highly sensitive information, we also found the sheer
volume of information that was properly classified as Secret by the U.S.
Intelligence Community at the time it was discussed on email (that is, excluding
the “up classified” emails) . This is especially concerning because all of these
emails were housed on servers not supported by full-time security staff, like those
found at Departments and Agencies of the U.S. Government, supports an
inference that the participants were grossly negligent in their handling of that
information-
W hile not the focus of our investigation, w e also developed evidence that the
security culture of the State Department in general, and with respect to use of
unclassified email systems in particular, was generally lacking in the kind of care
for classified information found elsewhere in the government.
With respect to potential computer intrusion by hostile actors, we did not find
direct evidence that Secretary Clinton’s personal email system, in its various
configurations since 2009, was successfully hacked. But, given the nature of the
system and of the actors potentially involved, we assess that we would be unlikely
to see such direct evidence. We do assess that hostile actors gained access to the
private commercial email accounts of individuals with whom Secretary Clinton
was in regular contact from her personal private account. We also assess that
Secretary Clinton’s use of a private personal email domain was both known by a
large number of people and readily apparent. Given that combination of factors,
we assess it is reasonably likely possible that hostile actors gained access to
Secretary Clinton’s private personal email account^
So that’s what we found.
Finally, with respect to our recommendation to the Department of Justice. In
our system, the prosecutors make the decisions about whether charges are
appropriate based on evidence the FBI has helped collect. Although we don’t

normally make public our recommendations to the prosecutors, we frequently
make recommendations and engage in productive conversations with prosecutors
about what resolution may be appropriate, given the evidence. In this case, given
the importance of the matter, I think unusual transparency is in order.
In looking back at our investigations in similar circumstances, we cannot find a
case that would support bringing criminal charges on these facts. All the cases
prosecuted involved some combination of: (1) clearly intentional mishandling of
classified information; (2) vast quantities of materials exposed in such a way as to
support an inference of intentional misconduct; (3) indications of disloyalty to the
United States; or (4) efforts to obstruct justice. All charged cases of which we are
aware have involved the accusation that a government employee intentionally
mishandled classified information. We see none of that |here|.
Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding the
handling of classified information, my judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor
would bring such a case. Prosecutors necessarily weigh a number of factors before
bringing charges. There are obvious considerations, like the strength of the
evidence. But they must be balanced against things like the intent and context of
the person’s actions. To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar
circumstances, an individual who engaged in this activity would face NO
consequences. To the contrary, such individuals are often subject to security or
administrative sanctions. But that decision is not what is before me now.
Commented [p6]: We changed none of this text, we simply
reordered it. The original text is below, struck-out.
Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statute proscribing gross
negligence in the handling of classified information and of the statute proscribing
misdemeanor mishandling, my judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would
bring such a case. At the outset, we are not aware of a case where anyone has been
charged solely based on the “gross negligence” prohibition in the [ statute - -In
looking back at our investigations in similar circumstances, we cannot find a case
that would support bringing criminal charges on these facts. All the cases
prosecuted involved some combination of: (1) clearly intentional misconduct; (2)
vast quantities of materials exposed in such a way as to support an inference of
intentional misconduct; (3) indications of disloyalty to the United States; or ( 4 )
efforts to obstruct justice. We see none of that here.
Commented [p7]:
Accordingly, although the Department of Justice makes final decisions on matters
such as this, I am completing the investigation by expressing to Justice my view
that no charges are appropriate in this case.
SJC000036
I know there will be intense public disagreement in the wake of this result, as there
was throughout this investigation. What I can assure the American people is that
this investigation was done competently, honestly, and independently. No outside
influence of any kind was brought to bear. I know there were many opinions
expressed by people who were not part of the investigation - including people in
government - but none of that mattered to us. Opinions are irrelevant, and they
were all uninformed by insight into our investigation, because we did the
investigation in a professional way. Only facts matter, and the FBI found them

SJC000059
Good morning. I’m here to give you an update on the FBI’s investigation of
Secretary Clinton’s use of a personal email system during her time as Secretary of
State.
After a tremendous amount of work over the last year, the FBI has finished
its investigation and referred the case to the Department of Justice for a prosecutive
decision. What I would like to do today is tell you three things: what we did; what
we found; and what we have recommended to the Department of Justice.
This will be an unusual statement in at least a couple ways. First, I am going
to include more detail than I ordinarily would, because I think the American people
deserve those details in a case of intense public interest. Second, I have not
coordinated or reviewed this statement in any way with the Department of Justice
or any other part of the government. They do not know what I am about to say.
But I want to start by thanking the many FBI employees who did remarkable
work in this case. Once you have a better sense of how much we have done, you
will understand why I am so grateful and proud of their efforts.
So, first, what we have done:
The investigation began as a referral from the Intelligence Community
Inspector General in connection with Secretary Clinton’s use of a personal email
server during her time as Secretary of State. The referral focused on whether
classified information was transmitted on that personal system.
Our investigation looked at whether there is evidence that classified
information was improperly stored or transmitted on that personal system, in
violation of a federal statute that makes it a felony to mishandle classified
information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way, or a second statute
that makes it a misdemeanor to knowingly remove classified information from
appropriate systems or storage facilities.
Consistent with our counter-intelligence responsibilities, we have also
investigated to determine whether there is evidence of computer intrusion in
connection with the personal email server by any foreign power, or other hostile
actors.
SJC000060
I have so far used the singular term, “email server,” in describing the referral
that began our investigation. It turns out to have been more complicated than that.
Secretary Clinton used several different servers and administrators of those servers
during her four years at the State Department, and used numerous mobile devices
to view and send email on that personal domain. As new servers and equipment
were employed, older servers were taken out of service, stored, and
decommissioned in various ways. Piecing all of that back together — to gain as full
an understanding as possible of the ways in which personal email was used for
government work — has been a painstaking undertaking, requiring thousands of
hours of effort.
For example, when one of Secretary Clinton’s original personal servers was
decommissioned in 2013, the email software was removed. Doing that didn’t
remove the email content, but it was like removing the frame from a huge finished
jigsaw puzzle and dumping the pieces on the floor. The effect was that millions of
email fragments end up unsorted in the server’s un-used - or “slack” - space. We
searched through all of it to see what was there, and what parts of the puzzle could
be put back together.
FBI investigators have also read all of the approximately 30,000 emails
provided by Secretary Clinton to the State Department in December 2014. Where
an email was assessed as possibly containing classified information, the FBI
referred the email to any U.S. government agency that was a likely “owner” of
information in the email, so that agency could make a determination as to whether
the email contained classified information at the time it was sent or received, or
whether there was reason to classify the email now, even if its content was not
classified at the time it was sent (that is the process sometimes referred to as “up-
classifying”).
From the group of 30,000 emails returned to the State Departmen
emails i email chains have been determined by the owning agency to contain
classified information at the time they were sent or received. Eight of those chains
contained information that was Top Secret at the time they were sent; 36 chains
contained Secret information at the time; an contained Confidential information,
which is the lowest level of classification. Separate from those, about 2,000
additional emails were “up-classified” to make them Confidential; the information
in those had not been classified at the time the emails were sent.
The FBI also discovered several thousand work-related emails that were not
in the group of 30,000 that were returned by Secretary Clinton to State in 2014.
SJC000061
We found those additional emails in a variety of ways. Some had been deleted over
the years and we found traces of them on devices that supported or were connected
to the private email domain. Others we found by reviewing the archived
government email accounts of people who had been government employees at the
same time as Secretary Clinton, including high-ranking officials at other agencies,
people with whom a Secretary of State might naturally correspond. This helped us
recover work-related emails that were not among the 30,000 produced to State.
Still others we recovered from the laborious review of the millions of email
fragments dumped into the slack space of the server decommissioned in 2013.
With respect to the thousands of emails we found that were not among those
produced to State, agencies have concluded that xx of those were classified at the
time they were sent or received, x at the Secret level and xx at the Confidential
level. There were no additional Top Secret emails found. Finally, xx of those we
found have since been “up-classified.”
I should add here that we found no evidence that any of the additional work-
related emails were intentionally deleted in an effort to conceal them. Our
assessment is that, like many email users, Secretary Clinton periodically deleted
emails or emails were purged from the system when devices were changed.
Because she was not using a government account - or even a commercial account
like Gmail - there was no archiving at all of her emails, so it is not surprising that
we discovered emails that were not on Secretary Clinton’s system in 2014, when
she produced the 30,000 emails to the State Department.
It could also be that some of the additional work-related emails we
recovered were among those deleted as “personal” by Secretary Clinton’s lawyers
when they reviewed and sorted her emails for production in 2014.
The lawyers doing the sorting for Secretary Clinton in 2014 did not
individually read the content of all of her emails, as we did for those available to
us; instead, they relied on header information and used search terms to try to find
all work-related emails among the reportedly more than 60,000 total emails
remaining on Secretary Clinton’s personal system in 2014. It is highly likely their
search terms missed some work-related emails, and that we later found them, for
example, in the mailboxes of other officials or in the slack space of a server.
It is also likely that there are other work-related emails that they did not produce to
State and that we did not find elsewhere, and that are now gone because they
deleted all emails they did not return to State, and the lawyers cleaned their devices
in such a way as to preclude complete forensic recovery.
SJC000062
We have conducted interviews and done technical examination to attempt to
understand how that sorting was done by her attorneys. Although we do not have
complete visibility because we are not fully able to reconstruct the electronic
record of that sorting, we believe our investigation has been sufficient to give us
reasonable confidence there was no intentional misconduct in connection with that
sorting effort.
And, of course, in addition to our technical work, we interviewed many
people, from those involved in setting up and maintaining the various iterations of
Secretary Clinton’s personal server, to staff members with whom she corresponded
on email, to those involved in the email production to State, and finally, Secretary
Clinton herself.
Last, we have done extensive work to understand what indications there
might be of compromise by hostile actors in connection with the personal email
operation.
That’s what we have done. Now let me tell you what we found:
Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her
colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified
information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling
of very sensitive, highly classified information.
For example, seven email chains concern matters that were classified at the
Top Secret/Special Access Program level when they were sent and received.
These chains involved Secretary Clinton both sending emails about those matters
and receiving emails from others about the same matters. There is evidence to
support a conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary Clinton’s position, or
in the position of those government employees with whom she was corresponding
about these matters, should have known that an unclassified system was no place
for that conversation. In addition to this highly sensitive information, we also
found information that was properly classified as Secret by the U.S. Intelligence
Community at the time it was discussed on email (that is, excluding the later “up-
classified” emails).
None of these emails should have been on any kind of unclassified system,
but their presence is especially concerning because all of these emails were housed
on unclassified personal servers not even supported by full-time security staff, like
SJC000063
those found at Departments and Agencies of the U.S. Government - or even with a
commercial service like Gmail.
Separately, it is important to say something about the marking of classified
information. Only a very small number of the emails containing classified
information bore markings indicating the presence of classified information. But
even if information is not marked “classified” in an email, participants who know
or should know that the subject matter is classified are still obligated to protect it.
While not the focus of our investigation, we also developed evidence that the
security culture of the State Department in general, and with respect to use of
unclassified email systems in particular, was generally lacking in the kind of care
for classified information found elsewhere in the government.
With respect to potential computer intrusion by hostile actors, we did not
find direct evidence that Secretary Clinton’s personal email system, in its various
configurations since 2009, was successfully hacked. But, given the nature of the
system and of the actors potentially involved, we assess that we would be unlikely
to see such direct evidence. We do assess that hostile actors gained access to the
private commercial email accounts of people with whom Secretary Clinton was in
regular contact from her personal account. We also assess that Secretary Clinton’s
use of a personal email domain was both known by a large number of people and
readily apparent. She also used her personal email extensively while outside the
United States, including from the territory of sophisticated adversaries. That use
included an email exchange with the President while Secretary Clinton was on the
territory of such an adversary. Given that combination of factors, we assess it is
possible that hostile actors gained access to Secretary Clinton’s personal email
account.
So that’s what we found. Finally, with respect to our recommendation to the
Department of Justice:
In our system, the prosecutors make the decisions about whether charges are
appropriate based on evidence the FBI has helped collect. Although we don’t
normally make public our recommendations to the prosecutors, we frequently
make recommendations and engage in productive conversations with prosecutors
about what resolution may be appropriate, given the evidence. In this case, given
the importance of the matter, I think unusual transparency is in order.
SJC000064
Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding
the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable
prosecutor would bring such a case. Prosecutors necessarily weigh a number of
factors before bringing charges. There are obvious considerations, like the strength
of the evidence, especially about intent. Responsible decisions also consider the
context of a person’s actions, and how similar situations have been handled in the
past.
In looking back at our investigations into mishandling or removal of
classified information, we cannot find a case that would support bringing criminal
charges on these facts. All the cases prosecuted involved some combination of:
clearly intentional and willful mishandling of classified information; or vast
quantities of materials exposed in such a way as to support an inference of
intentional misconduct; or indications of disloyalty to the United States; or efforts
to obstruct justice. We do not see those things here.
To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances, a person who
engaged in this activity would face no consequences. To the contrary, those
individuals are often subject to security or administrative sanctions. But that is not
what we are deciding now.
As a result, although the Department of Justice makes final decisions on
matters like this, we are completing the investigation by expressing to Justice our
view that no charges are appropriate in this case.
I know there will be intense public debate in the wake of this
recommendation, as there was throughout this investigation. What I can assure the
American people is that this investigation was done competently, honestly, and
independently. No outside influence of any kind was brought to bear.
I know there were many opinions expressed by people who were not part of
the investigation - including people in government - but none of that mattered to
us. Opinions are irrelevant, and they were all uninformed by insight into our
investigation, because we did the investigation the right way. Only facts matter,
and the FBI found them here in an entirely apolitical and professional way. I
couldn’t be prouder to be part of this organization.

SJC000073
Good morning. I’m here to give you an update on the FBI’s investigation of
Secretary Clinton’s use of a personal email system during her time as Secretary of
State.
After a tremendous amount of work over the last year, the FBI has finished
its investigation and is referring the case to the Department of Justice for a
prosecutive decision. What I would like to do today is tell you three things: what
we did; what we found; and what we are recommending to the Department of
Justice.
This will be an unusual statement in at least a couple ways. First, I am going
to include more detail than I ordinarily would, because I think the American people
deserve those details in a case of intense public interest. Second, I have not
coordinated or reviewed this statement in any way with the Department of Justice
or any other part of the government. They do not know what I am about to say.
I want to start by thanking the many FBI employees who did remarkable
work in this case. Once you have a better sense of how much we have done, you
will understand why I am so grateful and proud of their efforts.
So, first, what we have done:
The investigation began as a referral from the Intelligence Community
Inspector General in connection with Secretary Clinton’s use of a personal email
server during her time as Secretary of State. The referral focused on whether
classified information was transmitted on that personal system.
Our investigation looked at whether there is evidence that classified
information was improperly stored or transmitted on that personal system, in
violation of a federal statute that makes it a felony to mishandle classified
information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way, or a second statute
that makes it a misdemeanor to knowingly remove classified information from
appropriate systems or storage facilities.
Consistent with our counter-intelligence responsibilities, we have also
investigated to determine whether there is evidence of computer intrusion in
connection with the personal email server by any foreign power, or other hostile
actors.
SJC000074
I have so far used the singular term, “email server,” in describing the referral
that began our investigation. It turns out to have been more complicated than that.
Secretary Clinton used several different servers and administrators of those servers
during her four years at the State Department, and used numerous mobile devices
to view and send email on that personal domain. As new servers and equipment
were employed, older servers were taken out of service, stored, and
decommissioned in various ways. Piecing all of that back together — to gain as full
an understanding as possible of the ways in which personal email was used for
government work — has been a painstaking undertaking, requiring thousands of
hours of effort.
For example, when one of Secretary Clinton’s original personal servers was
decommissioned in 2013, the email software was removed. Doing that didn’t
remove the email content, but it was like removing the frame from a huge finished
jigsaw puzzle and dumping the pieces on the floor. The effect was that millions of
email fragments end up unsorted in the server’s un-used - or “slack” - space. We
searched through all of it to see what was there, and what parts of the puzzle could
be put back together.
FBI investigators have also read all of the approximately 30,000 emails
provided by Secretary Clinton to the State Department in December 2014. Where
an email was assessed as possibly containing classified information, the FBI
referred the email to any U.S. government agency that was a likely “owner” of
information in the email, so that agency could make a determination as to whether
the email contained classified information at the time it was sent or received, or
whether there was reason to classify the email now, even if its content was not
classified at the time it was sent (that is the process sometimes referred to as “up-
classifying”).
From the group of 30,000 emails returned to the State Departmen
emails i email chains have been determined by the owning agency to contain
classified information at the time they were sent or received. Eight of those chains
contained information that was Top Secret at the time they were sent; 36 chains
contained Secret information at the time; an contained Confidential information,
which is the lowest level of classification. Separate from those, about 2,000
additional emails were “up-classified” to make them Confidential; the information
in those had not been classified at the time the emails were sent.
The FBI also discovered several thousand work-related emails that were not
SJC000075
in the group of 30,000 that were returned by Secretary Clinton to State in 2014.
We found those additional emails in a variety of ways. Some had been deleted over
the years and we found traces of them on devices that supported or were connected
to the private email domain. Others we found by reviewing the archived
government email accounts of people who had been government employees at the
same time as Secretary Clinton, including high-ranking officials at other agencies,
people with whom a Secretary of State might naturally correspond. This helped us
recover work-related emails that were not among the 30,000 produced to State.
Still others we recovered from the laborious review of the millions of email
fragments dumped into the slack space of the server decommissioned in 2013.
With respect to the thousands of emails we found that were not among those
produced to State, agencies have concluded that xx of those were classified at the
time they were sent or received, x at the Secret level and xx at the Confidential
level. There were no additional Top Secret emails found. Finally, xx of those we
found have since been “up-classified.”
I should add here that we found no evidence that any of the additional work-
related emails were intentionally deleted in an effort to conceal them. Our
assessment is that, like many email users, Secretary Clinton periodically deleted
emails or emails were purged from the system when devices were changed.
Because she was not using a government account - or even a commercial account
like Gmail - there was no archiving at all of her emails, so it is not surprising that
we discovered emails that were not on Secretary Clinton’s system in 2014, when
she produced the 30,000 emails to the State Department.
It could also be that some of the additional work-related emails we
recovered were among those deleted as “personal” by Secretary Clinton’s lawyers
when they reviewed and sorted her emails for production in 2014.
The lawyers doing the sorting for Secretary Clinton in 2014 did not
individually read the content of all of her emails, as we did for those available to
us; instead, they relied on header information and used search terms to try to find
all work-related emails among the reportedly more than 60,000 total emails
remaining on Secretary Clinton’s personal system in 2014. It is highly likely their
search terms missed some work-related emails, and that we later found them, for
example, in the mailboxes of other officials or in the slack space of a server.
It is also likely that there are other work-related emails that they did not produce to
State and that we did not find elsewhere, and that are now gone because they
SJC000076
deleted all emails they did not return to State, and the lawyers cleaned their devices
in such a way as to preclude complete forensic recovery.
We have conducted interviews and done technical examination to attempt to
understand how that sorting was done by her attorneys. Although we do not have
complete visibility because we are not able to fully reconstruct the electronic
record of that sorting, we believe our investigation has been sufficient to give us
reasonable confidence there was no intentional misconduct in connection with that
sorting effort.
And, of course, in addition to our technical work, we interviewed many
people, from those involved in setting up and maintaining the various iterations of
Secretary Clinton’s personal server, to staff members with whom she corresponded
on email, to those involved in the email production to State, and finally, Secretary
Clinton herself.
Last, we have done extensive work to understand what indications there
might be of compromise by hostile actors in connection with the personal email
operation.
That’s what we have done. Now let me tell you what we found:
Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her
colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified
information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling
of very sensitive, highly classified information.
For example, seven email chains concern matters that were classified at the
Top Secret/Special Access Program level when they were sent and received.
These chains involved Secretary Clinton both sending emails about those matters
and receiving emails from others about the same matters. There is evidence to
support a conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary Clinton’s position, or
in the position of those government employees with whom she was corresponding
about these matters, should have known that an unclassified system was no place
for that conversation. In addition to this highly sensitive information, we also
found information that was properly classified as Secret by the U.S. Intelligence
Community at the time it was discussed on email (that is, excluding the later “up-
classified” emails).
SJC000077
None of these emails should have been on any kind of unclassified system,
but their presence is especially concerning because all of these emails were housed
on unclassified personal servers not even supported by full-time security staff, like
those found at Departments and Agencies of the U.S. Government - or even with a
commercial service like Gmail.
Separately, it is important to say something about the marking of classified
information. Only a very small number of the emails containing classified
information bore markings indicating the presence of classified information. But
even if information is not marked “classified” in an email, participants who know
or should know that the subject matter is classified are still obligated to protect it.
While not the focus of our investigation, we also developed evidence that the
security culture of the State Department in general, and with respect to use of
unclassified email systems in particular, was generally lacking in the kind of care
for classified information found elsewhere in the government.
With respect to potential computer intrusion by hostile actors, we did not
find direct evidence that Secretary Clinton’s personal email domain, in its various
configurations since 2009, was successfully hacked. But, given the nature of the
system and of the actors potentially involved, we assess that we would be unlikely
to see such direct evidence. We do assess that hostile actors gained access to the
private commercial email accounts of people with whom Secretary Clinton was in
regular contact from her personal account. We also assess that Secretary Clinton’s
use of a personal email domain was both known by a large number of people and
readily apparent. She also used her personal email extensively while outside the
United States, including from the territory of sophisticated adversaries. That use
included an email exchange with another senior government official while
Secretary Clinton was in the territory of such an adversary. Given that
combination of factors, we assess it is possible that hostile actors gained access to
Secretary Clinton’s personal email account.
So that’s what we found. Finally, with respect to our recommendation to the
Department of Justice:
In our system, the prosecutors make the decisions about whether charges are
appropriate based on evidence the FBI has helped collect. Although we don’t
normally make public our recommendations to the prosecutors, we frequently
make recommendations and engage in productive conversations with prosecutors
SJC000078
about what resolution may be appropriate, given the evidence. In this case, given
the importance of the matter, I think unusual transparency is in order.
Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statutes regarding
the handling of classified information, our judgment is that no reasonable
prosecutor would bring such a case. Prosecutors necessarily weigh a number of
factors before bringing charges. There are obvious considerations, like the strength
of the evidence, especially about intent. Responsible decisions also consider the
context of a person’s actions, and how similar situations have been handled in the
past.
In looking back at our investigations into mishandling or removal of
classified information, we cannot find a case that would support bringing criminal
charges on these facts. All the cases prosecuted involved some combination of:
clearly intentional and willful mishandling of classified information; or vast
quantities of materials exposed in such a way as to support an inference of
intentional misconduct; or indications of disloyalty to the United States; or efforts
to obstruct justice. We do not see those things here.
To be clear, this is not to suggest that in similar circumstances, a person who
engaged in this activity would face no consequences. To the contrary, those
individuals are often subject to security or administrative sanctions. But that is not
what we are deciding now.
As a result, although the Department of Justice makes final decisions on
matters like this, we are completing the investigation by expressing to Justice our
view that no charges are appropriate in this case.
I know there will be intense public debate in the wake of this
recommendation, as there was throughout this investigation. What I can assure the
American people is that this investigation was done competently, honestly, and
independently. No outside influence of any kind was brought to bear.
I know there were many opinions expressed by people who were not part of
the investigation - including people in government - but none of that mattered to
us. Opinions are irrelevant, and they were all uninformed by insight into our
investigation, because we did the investigation the right way. Only facts matter,
and the FBI found them here in an entirely apolitical and professional way. I
couldn’t be prouder to be part of this organization.

TRANSITORY RECORD
I’ve been trying to imagine what it would look like if I decided to do an FBI only press event
to close out our work and hand the matter to DOJ. To help shape our discussions of whether
that, or something different, makes sense, I have spent some time crafting what I would say,
which follows. In my imagination, I don’t see me taking any questions. Here is what it might
look like:
Good afternoon folks. I am here to give you an update on our investigation of Secretary' Clinton's use
of a private email system, which began in late August.
After a tremendous amount of work, the FBI has completed its investigation and has referred the case
to the Department of Justice for a prosecutive decision. What I would like to do today is tell you
three things: (1) what we did; (2) what we found; (3) what we have recommended to DOJ.
But I want to start by thanking the many agents, analysts, technologists, and other FBI employees who
did work of extraordinary' quality in this case. Once you have a better sense of how much we have
done, you will understand why I am so grateful and proud of their efforts.
So, first: what we have done over the last eight months.
The investigation began as a referral from the Intelligence Community' Inspector General in
connection with Secretary' Clinton's use of a private email server during his time as Secretary' of State,
focused on whether classified information was transmitted on that private system.
Our investigation focused on whether there is evidence that classified information was improperly
stored or transmitted on that private system, in violation of a federal statute that makes it a felony to
mishandle classified information either intentionally or in a grossly negligent way, or a second statute
that makes it a misdemeanor to remove classified information from appropriate systems or storage
facilities.
Consistent with our counterintelligence responsibilities, we have also investigated to determine
whether there is evidence of computer intrusion in connection with the private email server by any
foreign power, or hackers on behalf of a foreign power.

investigation. It turns out to have been more complicated than that. Secretary Clinton used several
different servers and providers of those servers during her four years at the State Department, and used
numerous mobile devices to view and send email on that private domain. As new servers and providers
were employed, older servers were taken out of service, stored, and decommissioned in various ways.
Piecing all of that back together to gain as full an understanding as possible of the ways in which
private email was used for government work has been a painstaking undertaking, requiring thousands of
hours of effort.
For example, when one of Secretary' Clinton's original private servers was decommissioned in 20xx.
the email software was removed. Doing that didn’t remove the email content, but it was like removing
the frame from a huge finished jigsaw puzzle and dumping the pieces on the floor. The effect was that
millions of email fragments end up unsorted in the server’s un-used - or "slack” - space. We went
through all of it to see what was there, and what parts of the puzzle could be put back together.
FBI investigators have also read all 34.000 emails provided by Secretary' Clinton to the State
Department in spring 2015. Where an email was assessed as possibly containing classified
information, the FBI referred the email to the U.S. government agency that was the likely “owner” of
the information in the email so that agency could make a determination as to whether the email
contained classified information at the time it was sent or received, or whether there was reason to
classify the email now. even if its content was not classified at the time it was sent (this is the process
sometimes referred to as “up classifying”).
From that group of 34.000 emails that had been returned to the State Department in 2015. the FBI sent
xxxx emails to agencies for classification determinations. Of those, xxxx have been determined to
contain classified information at the time they were sent or received. Xxxx of those contained
information that was Top Secret at the time they were sent; xxxx contained Secret information at the
time; and xxxx contained Confidential information. Separate from those, a total of xxxx additional
emails were up classified” to make them Secret or Confidential; the information in those had not
been classified at the time the emails were sent.
The FBI also discovered xxxx work-related emails that were not in the group of 34.000 that were
returned by Secretary' Clinton to State in 2015. We found those additional emails in a variety of ways.
Some had been deleted over the years and we found traces of them on devices that supported or were
connected to the private email domain. Others we found by reviewing the archived government email
accounts of people who had been government employees at the same time as Secretary' Clinton,
including high-ranking officials at other agencies, with whom a Secretary' of State might naturally
correspond. This helped us recover work-related emails that were not among the 34.000 produced to
State. Still others we recovered from the laborious review of the millions of email fragments dumped
into the slack space of the server decommissioned in 20xx.
All told, we found xxxx emails that were not among those produced to the State Department last year.
Of those, we assessed that xxxx possibly contained classified information at the time they were sent
or received and so we sent them to other government agencies for classification determinations. To
date, agencies have concluded that xxxx of those were classified at the time thev were sent or
received, xxx at the Secret level and xxxx at the Confidential level. There were no additional Top
Secret emails found. Finally, none of those we found have since been up classified.”
I should add here that we found no evidence that any of the additional work-related emails we found
were intentionally deleted in an effort to conceal them. Our assessment is that, like many users of
private email accounts. Secretary' Clinton periodically deleted emails or emails were purged from the
SJC000141
system when devices were changed. Because she was not using a government account, there was no
archiving of her emails, so it is not surprising that we discovered emails that were not on Secretary'
Clinton’s system in 2015. when she produced the 34 ; 000 emails to the State Department.
It could also be that some of the additional work-related emails we recovered were among those
deleted as 'personal” by Secretary' Clinton s lawyers when they reviewed and sorted her emails for
production in 2015. We have conducted interviews and done technical examination to attempt to
understand how that sorting was done. Although we do not have complete visibility' because we are not
fully able to reconstruct the electronic record of that sorting, we believe our investigation has been
sufficient to give us reasonable confidence there was no intentional misconduct in connection with
that sorting effort.
The lawyers doing the sorting for Secretary' Clinton in 2015 did not individually read tens of thousands
of emails, as we did; instead, they used search terms to try to find all work-related emails among the
more than 60.000 total emails remaining on Secretary' Clinton’s private system in 2015. It is highly
likely their search terms missed some work-related emails, and that we found them, for example, in
the mailboxes of other officials or in the slack space of a server. It is also likely that there are other
work-related emails that they did not produce to State and that we did not find elsewhere, and that are
now gone because they deleted all emails they did not return to State, and the lawyers cleaned their
devices in a such a way as to preclude forensic recovery.
And. of course, in additional to our technical work, we interviewed many people, from those involved
in setting up and maintaining the various iterations of Secretary Clinton’s private server to staff
members with whom she corresponded on email, to those involved in the email production to State,
and finally. Secretary Clinton herself.
Lastly, we have done extensive work with the assistance of our colleagues elsewhere in the
Intelligence Community' to understand what indications there might be of compromise by hostile
actors in connection with the private email operation.
That’s what we have done. Now let me tell you what we found.
There is evidence to support a conclusion that Secretary Clinton, and others, used the private email
server in a manner that was grossly negligent with respect to the handling of classified information.
For example, seven email chains concern matters that were classified at the TS/SAP level when they
were sent and received. These chains involved Secretary Clinton both sending emails about those
matters and receiving emails from others about the same matters. There is evidence to support a
conclusion that any reasonable person in Secretary' Clinton’s position, or in the positon of those
government employees with whom she was corresponding about these matters, should have known that
an unclassified system was no place for such an email conversation. Although we did not find clear
evidence that Secretary' Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of
classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very'
sensitive, highly classified information.
Similarly, the sheer volume of information that was properly classified as Secret at the time it was
discussed on email (that is. excluding the "up classified” emails) supports an inference that the
participants were grossly negligent in their handling of that information.
We also developed evidence that the security' culture of the State Department in general, and with
respect to use of unclassified email systems in particular, was generally lacking in the kind of care for

With respect to potential computer intrusion by hostile actors, we did not find direct evidence that
Secretary' Clinton's personal email system, in its various configurations since 2009. was successfully
hacked. But. given the nature of the system and of the actors potentially involved, we assess that we
would be unlikely to see such direct evidence. We do assess that hostile actors gained access to the
private email accounts of individuals with whom Secretary' Clinton was in regular contact from her
private account. We also assess that Secretary' Clinton's use of a private email domain was both
known by a large number of people and readily apparent. Given that combination of factors, we asses
it is reasonably likely that hostile actors gained access to Secretary' Clinton's private email account.
So that’s what we found.
Finally, with respect to our recommendation to the Department of Justice. In our system, the
prosecutors make the decisions about whether charges are appropriate based on evidence the FBI has
helped collect. Although we don't normally make public our recommendations to the prosecutors, we
frequently make recommendations and engage in productive conversations with prosecutors about
what resolution may be appropriate, given the evidence. In this case, given the importance of the
matter. I think unusual transparency is in order.
Although there is evidence of potential violations of the statute proscribing gross negligence in the
handling of classified information and of the statute proscribing misdemeanor mishandling, my
judgment is that no reasonable prosecutor would bring such a case. At the outset, we are not aware of
a case where anyone has been charged solely based on the ''gross negligence” prohibition in the
statute. All charged cases of which we are aware have involved the accusation that a government
employee intentionally mishandled classified information. In looking back at our investigations in
similar circumstances, we cannot find a case that would support bringing criminal charges on these
facts. All the cases prosecuted involved some combination of: (1) clearly intentional misconduct; (2)
vast quantities of materials exposed in such a way as to support an inference of intentional
misconduct; (3) indications of disloyalty to the United States; or (4) efforts to obstruct justice. We
see none of that here.
Accordingly, although the Department of Justice makes final decisions on matters such as this. I am
completing the investigation by expressing to Justice my view that no charges are appropriate in this
case.
I know there will be intense public disagreement in the wake of this result, as there was throughout this
investigation. What I can assure the American people is that this investigation was done competently,
honestly, and independently. No outside influence of any kind was brought to bear. I know there were

Yeah, though more important is his agent and analytic corps and they

sure about his temperament in this project.
2015-08-24

No you're right. He's a petulant baby (remind me to tell you his latest
fit with her). She's being told that this new case (that's all she would
say to me), followed by dead people.
So I'd be surprised if she hands off too much to him. More that she's
going to have to let him handle more of which she doesn't really
want to do.

You have any idea this was coming?\n\nJustice Dept. Says Hillary
Clinton Had Authority to Delete Certain Emails
http://nyti.ms/lMhHPA3\n\n
No idea about doj statement. We're trying to
get a copy of original filing. We think it says she was requires to
preserve copies of things that were records and could delete the rest
but that the filing is being taken out of context and spun. But who
What isn't clear from the article is whether or not they (doj) speak to
the issue of whether or not she had authority to be operating off of a
private server.
B) is very nice but she's no Lisa Page. JG wanted something on
Fri, So i sent an email this morning at 830 to her and oroposing
how to handle it—crickets... __
So I think I've decided that I'm not going to start until Thursday my
first week back, then the following week has a fed holiday so it's only
a 4 day week,
so I
might take that Monday off as well, just so I can ease back in.
Especially if it's still not clear what I'll be doing. \U0001f612
Or in the alternative, maybe I'll start on Wednesday but just work half
days thru thatfriday. __
Or, log into eras and do your mandatory training and milk another
week. \n\nBefore you start working with |...;)_
! Talked to Gregg about Randy's offer. His advice is take what I'll enjoy,
as I have options...plus a ton of more detail about upcoming
personnel moves.... _
Be, not me.
Yep. Seems like I want my cake and eat it, too...
So that's a no cpc move? I still say start your ses clock, although
there's no doubt you will have options. _
Np. Briefing to D we thought was on the 28th is now tomorrow at
2....glad we 're s o prep ared...we will be, but still _
Yikes, but you'll be completely great...
Honestly, l thought it was weird that he would let you brief clapper

What a joke: \nStill, there was progress. Never before had China
agreed with Mr. Obama\u2019s fundamental premise that the theft
of intellectual property for commercial gain was off limits. After weeks
of behind-the-scenes negotiations with the Chinese leadership, first in
Beijing in late August and then with a delegation of nearly 50 senior
Chinese officials who came to Washington quietly two weeks ago,
Beijing agreed to wording that read: \u201cNeither country\u2019s
government will conduct or knowingly support cyber-enabled theft of
intellectual property, including trade secrets or other confidential
business information, with the intent of providing competitive
advantages to companies or commercial sectors.\u201d\n\nLimiting
Security Breaches May Be Impossible Task for U.$. and China

Good for her for running, but curious if she's energized or never again.

And yes. I'm TOTALLY the same. I may unnecessarily care what people
think way more than you. I'm trying to get a comfort with sense of self
where I don't care. It's not so much on the professional work side (I
know I'm good enough that I can be confident and humble there) buy
on the interpersonal side.
No. Briefing on cpc issue

I'm not sure 1 agree. If trisha's whole point of putting :here is to
ensure more reliance on ogc, I'm not sure she's embrace me acting
pretty independently, which is the only way 1 know how to be. Will
forward a couple of emails - not a perfect example but maybe a little
demonstrative. There are other "special counsels", the D's, one in OCA.
I'm sure they're grandfathered, but 1 don't think Jim or especially trisha
will want me to suggest I'm a lawyer if I'm not in ogc.

Pretty important to me, actually. Especially if 1 plan to leave the bureau,
1 want my title to reflect the work I'm doing. Wtf is a special assistant to
the private sector? Chief of staff would be fine, but 1) that's not the job
I'll be doing and 2) Rybicki has made pretty clear he's opposed to me
using that title. I'm a lawyer, it's my identity, it's what I'd like to call
mvself. ... .

Completely understand. So stay in OGC and be special counsel. Why
does JB not want that? Particularly if that means they have some
connection to your job? A lot of OGC are dummies but Jim and Trisha
are not and vou can work with both of them...

Kill him with kindness. You have far, far - wildly so - more power.

They all do. It's not just him. Honestly, because I'm painted unfairly.
And I KNOW it's because of jealousy and I KNOW there's nothing I can
do about it. But my sense of fairness is as foundational a part of me as
literally any single trait I can think of. It's why I'm in government, why
public service is a calling for me. So I think it is just very hard for me to
let go when something is unfair.

And it frustrates me, because Bill; at his 7:15, brings up the whole
matter in front of his DADs. One who is acting for Dina. Who
immediately goes to John and tell him how Bill is stressed because all
the stuff is going on about a special prosecutor. Bill needs to learn to
not talk to everybody about this when he’s upset about it. And I

It's not intimidation. Which is why 1 get a little angry at doing the

Can someone who

Yes, of course! Someone is weak, insecure, threatened, whatever, and
act like an asshole as a defense mechanism. I'm just telling you,

No. You're a professional and someone who works in the office of
the highest ranking agent in the FBI. You behave professionally and
appropriately. _
You remain above the fray because that's the right thing to do, not
because you're a woman or young or a n ything else . _
Everyone gets^H was out of line.
I don't believe that for a second.
And he was perfectly fine in the meeting. Which means the "out of
line" has be e n happe ning since the n. _ _
And remember -1 didn't tell this to^H because I had forgotten -
you whispered it to me, and only after George said "share your
wisdom with the group" did you mention it. _
He wasn't perfectly fine in the meeting. I thought he was angry and
you were leaving. \n\nWhich part of what I said don't you believe?
And what do you mean by out if line has been happening since the
meeting* _
That everyone gets he was out of line.
It's the part that keeps coming up with I have not heard
anything from anyone else in the meeting (other than
talking ABOUT^H). Because, I suspect, that was on him to
research/speak to and he didn't and it was questioned.

behind Randy Andy and
with the ones at the meeting. The
former is more along the lines of what you're saying. The meeting
wasn't a function of yur age or gender. would have
responded exactly the same way to a 45 year old male from the

1 guess. 1 would probably be more direct - they don't know you
from adam, why are they supposed to take your word for it?

much work to demonstrate that to everyone.

2016-04-08 OUTBOX Maybe it is a friend thing. I gotta say, when he sent the email, and
00:19:35, Fri then was so concerned by my reaction that he followed up with
that call, my overall feeling was "oh good, he cares!" I'm even okay
with him caring out of a selfish desire because he really wants me
to keep working for him. And so now I just feel like a suckered
maybe? Guess he didn't care enough.
I don't know. That's the best I can come up with.
I'd feel that way. No doubt about it. \n\nBut see what I just
imsged. I don't know if "friendship" changes when it's a superior -
subordinate relationship, particularly when it's an advisor - high
ranking dynamic (in other words, I think it's different - some - from
my relationship with^^^^^^^J)
And interesting how elusive it is (for me, too!) to put ones finger
on. \n\nl guess for me it's the thought (hope) that he's a stand up
guy. And this is not stand up behavior. And when it's about YOU
that's extra hard.\n\nLet me ask this (though maybe it doesn't
translate). What would Giacalone do?
I do think it's because he's my friend too. And honestly, I know he's
my vast superior, but he's never treated me like that. Nor I him. So
mostly I do just consider him my friend. _
Re giacalone, I really don't know. I think he would have taken it
head on and addressed it, but he's such a different person, he
would have done it in an awkward shucks-y way. Andy's not like
that, just has to be earnest and direct, which is harder. John would
say, "hey c'mon go easy on her. She's helping me out, means no
harm, etc." I think? But what do I know.

Because you know where I was on Thursday or Friday night - when
I was complaining about everyone expecting me to deliver the hard
message while they vacillated in discussing with their counterparts.
About how my sense of justness and character was at odds with
waiting until Sat to say something. \n\nAnd rightfully, you point
out stop being so prima donna-ish and just do it. \n\nAnd i do.
\n\nAnd then I find out an hour later that in addition to what I was
asked to do, JB went to counsel and had the discussion he did. And
I'm the one facing the music. From some who I have known for a
long time. Nobody else pays the price. Nobody else will have the
same straight hard discussion. Yet I'm the only one who violated
his sense of integrity to swallow hard and deliver the message.

I'm not sure if I want to be part of this
You are a part of this and that's not going to change. But I think
you have every right to be angry and frustrated about being left
out of the loop on your investigation, especially when you're going
to be left holding the bag. And I think you're entitled to say
something to Baker about that, though on this one I would
probably discu ss w ith Bill first. _
I'm sorry^^f Big big case, big big problems. But God knows
you're still the right guy to do it.F!1133 _
Gmailed you two drafts of what I'm thinking of sending Bill, would
appreciate your thoughts. Second (more recent) is updated so you
can skip the first. _
Andy just called to make sure I had heard everything. Call when
you're free _ _
Bill wants to talk to me at 1215...
Just talked with Bill, who spoke with
everyone this morning. Will fill you in tonight or tomorrow.
\n\nAlso, he was under the impression Andy wanted the meeting
and a prebrief with FBI only just before. I think may have
screwed up that scheduling. Can you check? Obviously want to
confirm with him before going toB^jff
We talked for 45 minutes...
Wow. Can you talk now?
Sent email to andy re pre-brief. Will let you know what he says.
Will wait to reach out to^^l re call-in line until I hear from him.

Oof. Laufman just left me a minute long message. Don't think I'm
going to listen tonight. \n\nAnd it's weird. CES always shows as
"restricted" when the call is coming in but then shows true name
afterwards on the call list. Needless to say, I screen all restricted
calls... ___
Talked with^H for a while. She couldn't remember who said the
D was going to talk to the AG on Sun night or Mon about this.

My point in forwarding the email was to talk about how we get to
a productive pla ce
We'll get there, but for this meeting I'd solely just be taking^m
lead.
Well sure, but would be nice to know what that lead is in advance
rather than, I don't know, f*ck me in the *ss wirhout saying
anything, kinda like^ calling counsel the night before. \n\nToo
much negative done to expect benefit of the doubt.
Maybe we can find some time to talk today
about the MYE thing? Really need to put it to rest. Certainly before
the meeting tomorrow, if I can. _
I will. I promise.
Btw, forgot to mentiom, Bill had me forward invite tomorrow to
m \U0001f612
Are you serious?
Yep. Came up in the meeting.
Spoke to^^^J need to talk to you at some point. Not urgent, so
can certainly wait
so free to talk.
Hi. I can talk now.
Thank you. \U0001f636 \n\nWas obviously constrained on my
comments. What I identified IS what bothers me the most. And the
rest is nonsense. _
And I think that frustration is fair. But it doesn't change the
fundamental okay-ness of the prior two decisions (the summation
and the call to her). It just means it would be best to handle it
differently in the future. And Jim WILL understand that. Just talk to
him, one on one. You don't need to get Bill's permission, clear
through him, just go talk to him. It will all be fine.
I will. He told Bill on Monday he'd be happy to talk to me any time.

Some, but this big of a difference would be really anomalous.

me until AFTER he talked to Andy
Uh okay. And he waited three days because?...
No. Just now. Tonght. About this afternoons covo
Conversation.
The 2:00 you mean?

faulty telephone process going on with info flow in the fbi

possible he's still at dinner...

Who's not the team - JB? Fine, but D and dd decided to use him.
And ifaccurate, was the cause of wondering what info is or
isnt passed up. After all, of JB doesn't know that, what doesn't
Andy know? _
Yeah I get it, but George KNOWS jb. This is all bs. Whatever, I'm
just irritated.

I am too. This also plays into "Georges special relationship" with
Andy_ _
Think we should touch topic of during D brief?
Hmm. Let me get to you aboutthatone^^^Btalked to me this am
about jb and ta's position re haven't had a
cha nce to dig in yet. _ _
And please re Andy don't go too far. He (and J) knows we are
close, right? And while what you're saying is exactly right, would
you say it for any schmuck? _
Probably not, but you're not any schmuck.
\U0001f636\U0001f636\U0001f636 (damn right \U0001f609)\n\nl
think we mention that part (specifically that we're cleared to go
back to task). I was talking about the specific allegation. We
haven't discussed with him in a briefing we've given. I almost want
to do it so 1) he knows we're aware 2) demonstrate that to Trisha
and whoever else is deep in the "secret secret, ive got a secret"
mindset and 3) get a sense of what he's thinking.
I just think andy is probably keeping him appraised of this, but we
can talk about it.
Agree. It is substantive in that it is relevant to the case, just not
sure if there is a decision point or information he would want in
the context if his thinking about the issue. _
Yeah, can maybe have bill ask andy, but otherwise don't think it's
probably n ec essary. _ _
Ha. Want to talk to you about^^f and her comment, too...
stupid comment, and whether you want me to say
anything to her
What would you say?
So, it looks like there is a networking/break starting at 2, then kerry
sleeper from 2:15 to 2:45, then homicide trends at 2:45-3:15, then
another networking/break. I would schedule for 2:00.
Then 3:30 is Oregon standoff/managing relationships.
Just reinforce that you're good people, experienced, credible. Not
"little" anything. Not sure it would make a difference but willing to.
I'd be more interested in finding out why she said it. "What was up
with little counsel girl? Do you not like her?"_

Toscas showed up. Just like Thurs meeting, he was by far the most
aggressive DoJ in the room. Literally siding with us and fighting
back againstet al's concerns. \U0001f621\n\nl literally
said, twice, stop framing your facts to them simply in terms of PC
for an affidavit. Frame your argument in terms of what is most
compelling in the big picture to achieve what we want, then
narrow down to show how it links specifically to our case/pc/etc.
\n\nl think George got it, but jeez. It's not so hard, is it?
It's not. They're just not very good. Can you call George, ask him to
attend? _
\U0001f60a D. \n\nHe's not. Already thought to myself, Jesus
George, why can't you have this conversation. He got immediately
what I was saying (granted, he may already have had the benefit of
Andy telling him). It's a smart play. It's not complicated.
Will have to tell vou mv convo with earlier and what MU
Will have to tell you my convo with earlier and what^g
said. After I left, he apparently said he was "tired of taking sh*t
from the Bureau." \U0001f612 _
Gotta go have career counseling with Bill...should be done before
you get there, though.
Taking sht from the Bureau?! Poor^^^J It's so hard to be him.
Especially gratifying that Toscas then tells him exactly the same
thing
How'd the talk go with Bill? What'd he say?
In any event, he said he thought the world of me and couldn't
imagine me being anywhere other than the top quadrant.
Asked what I wanted to do and any geographic limitations, m
In essence said I'd
What'd he say to that?

Fie didnt, directly. Certainly didn't say no way, but nor did he say, "I
think you'll be able to do that." Two reasons, at least. Much easier
for him to argue to advance me if he can say "Pete's willing to go
to the east coast" or even mid-atlantic than it is to say "Pete's
limited to HQ and WFO." _
Second reason is he went to NY and left his family here.
Always better to
at least say "look. I'm open to the needs of the Bureau, just be
aware of these factors" rather than "I must stay here"
Especially if you do a
gig as dad first. Or be like andy and be willing to not ever be
promoted further because of your geographic limitations.
I did tell him I'd be interested in being a DAD, he said good, some
people aren't interested in that. I did caveat that later to CD by
saying if Jones or Gordon left. I suppose I'd think hard about CYD or
Crim or even CTD. Not Intel or other divisions.

No way to change the room. The table alone was^H. (You can't

I'll ask you, in front of the D, "Pete, I apologize for putting you on
the spot, but I know you shared with andy some of the comments
you've been hearing from folks, I think it would be valuable for the
D to know them." _
Can't right now but will shortly.
Np. Have some time on all this.
And hey^^^ call the field office. HQ isn't going to be able to
draft a damn search warrant, the field is. Call an ausa on duty for
chrissake. _
No kidding...but he never knew shit about the Bu anyway
Talked to Bill just now
Think I'm going to call Laufman this morning. Want details
specifically on WHO is making these calls. Then call^f and talk
about what they did in PC investigation land. _
Good plan.
Don't let that pompous boob push you around either.
I won't - he hasn't really tried to do that. He's largely absent.
Work call?
(Me with you, now? (
Just got done talking to Bill
check out the wp articles I emailed.
Read a Clinton one.
When is Andy out next?
Turn on nbc
What was it?
Guccifer. Sleazy Romanian.

Funny to watch and think of
No wonder he's a brusque as he is...and those
Roma nians aren't e ven the gypsies... _
Seriously, I kind of hate them. (I'm sure^^J fine). But they have
the crookedness of the Russians with the entitledness of the
Italians. Yuck.
Ha. Never really dealt with them
Hey, work related, with Bill out, does Andy want Jones bringing
MYE daily bullets? Or email from us to I don't see
how we don't include him. And I think I def bootleg you in case he
Fs it up _
I'm sure he doesn't care, plus I can't imagine that Jones will sit in
I guess. Another thing to add to the to do list.
Don't have anything until my
910 mye staff meeting.
Walking to desk
I'm at my desk, hiding behind the yellow "away" light
Jon got an eras machine last week. Wondering if I want to do the
same. \U0001f615 _
When are you free tomorrow Ito talk with Jon about speech? 1?
Not sure. Will let you know,
And talkedto^^^^Barmer evening. \n\nConcluded by saying I
cannot overstate to you the sense of urgency about wanting to
logically and effectively conclude this investigation.
Meet with Jon at 2 tomorrow?
We have Bowdich at 2:30. Can you do earlier? Or any time after
3:45. And/or come to Bowdich with us
Don't want to do that. Let me look.
I could do 1:30-2:30. Do you guys need to prep for that at all?
Wait but you both have your 1:00.

I know. #1: you need to find out how he knew. #2: I talked to Andy
about it. He's out. Permanently. He will discuss with Bill.

Want me to come straight there?
Hey need to go meet with NCOS on the uco stuff.
Updates for you
Will be in my office (just above you, I think) - sending a UC to 1:00
so I have a bit more flexibility
Hi.^H coming through
With what?
Sitting in CES with them overnight writing the PSEU form so it's
ready tomorrow morning for Dana and George to sign. Dana is
ready. _
Good. F-ing finally.
Holy cow are you still talking?!
Just finished. Will call. On the way out Eric asked (he suggested no)
if we needed the meeting tomorrow afternoon
Did you ask Andy if he still wanted to meet tomorrow?
I did not. I had left when Eric caught me. I told Eric I deferred to
Andy about whether or not we needed to meet. We did not talk
about what we planned to tell the D on Mon.
Spoke and relayed Andy's message. Told him Andy was
relaying to Carlin. Richard said he'd wait to hear from on high.
Carlin and George are definitely going to have to message down
Can I send that to Andy.
Think I need an eras....
And just got a mtg cancel for mtg tomorrow afternoon with Andy
Remind story
Yup. And Eric cancelling eve mtg too.
Tried tonight but didn't reach him. Will try in am.
Hey forgot to ask if you mentioned the whole special counsel thing
to andy?

Sleeper was in there when I arrived
Yup. I'm pissed. Especially be he knows Eric and^^J are tight.
Soft power.
Yeah, I know. I already called Jim and sent an email to trisha.
\U0001f612 _
See?!? Perfect
I walked through my convo with DoJ. Got more info ffomU
about Laufman. It's a problem. Told Andy that, too.
What info?
Who was your poc to get an eras? Or did you just get JG's?
I did just get^| I wonder what they asked him when he went to
turn in his property. Just ask jon, no? _
Yeah, that's what I'm going to do.
Talked to^^^f last night, btw. Fie spoke to^J. Shockingly, she
did not sound surprised about the subpoenas, said she would
accept service. \U0001f612 _
Still saying no about the laptops, but focused on Mills'. Fie said
they were moving forward on that front as well. Helpfully,
obliquely told/reminded her pet her prior conments that if she was
going to call anyone, to do that soon. \U0001f612 Because we're
just TFIAT bad. _
Of, not pet
Your calendar isn't SO bad today....Jones has his meeting
scheduled over Eric's farewell. Are you going to that? _
I am going, yes.
Let me see what Jones is thinking. Suppose I cam show up late.
There will be more than 30 minutes of speechifying. I'm sure

I'm thinking about not going with Andy tomorrow, going into to
work but only working on uco policy and house stuff. I'm very torn.
\U0001f612 _
You should definitely go before Andy
leaves. You'll have another chance, but the irons hot now. Flip side,
I really want you (and him, but at least one of you) at D brief.
Work-wise, probably smarter to go in, I guess.
Take the helicopter next time.;)
Yes. ^ just texted. Dd flying with the DAG on the bird. So he'll be
back for mye. So if there are extra seats. I'll join, if not. I'll come in.
That's totally cool.
Where do you leave from, Reagan?
Troop configuration sits 11 (if you're taking the Blackhawk) but no
idea how configured. 8, no problem. Take out seats and you can
cram about 20 all soothed together (but that's SUPER tight). Is^
going?_
Scootched not soothed. It is NOT soothed.
First time in a blackhawk? Flelicopter?
Never been in a blackhawk, or any helicopter at all KalSpMSSiiil
Well, I really hope you can go. There's got to be enough room -
even if the DAG takes +2, +2 detail guys, and Andy, that's only 6.
When will you know? _
Tonight? Not sure
Saw your email. Waiting to do something until I get it "officially" -
or can I use your email for that? We're going to have to go to NSD.
I think Bill calling George is the right place to start, then I can
follow up with
Wait. Bill said cd will take the lead.
Sigh. I suppose he'll relay that eventually. \U0001f612
Fie will.

And I'm going to ping Jim R tomorrow (or whenever I get it) to say
hey, per D's request, we've put quite a bit of thought into it,
including coming up with this, Andy noted you were collecting
comments, how would you like them. _
Well, he hasn't. I'm just going to email him and see if he wants an
update from last week either tonight or tomorrow morning before
he goes upstairs. _
I'm over my email limit so can't send right now. It's utterly freezing
outside. Sucks. _ _
DAG detail saying only room for Andy. ^ is checking with her
staff.
Oof. That sucks. And bullsh*t, unless it's a smaller helicopter. Is it
DOJ's or ours? If you cant go. I'll take you to lunch and make
helicopter noises. ;)\n\nl just did a mass cull down on 324mail.
Talking to Bill at 7:45. Did some open source
research, no way we get that data on our own. _
I know. It has to be nsd.
I need some clarifying data - just retention, right? While it might be
helpful to put in Petraeus, Hitselberger, that's only to show they
are different, ie, involve transmittal to another person. He just
wants fact patterns where it was only retention, not disclosure,
right? And taking graviman literally, list will not include more
serious cases/disclosures which are more than retention.
Yes, that's what I would say.
Just finished with Bill
Talked to
Bill for about an hour. He mentioned email, said he would send
(though he hasn't yet). He had a slightly different take than I did
but we'll get there. His primary concern is asking DoJ in such a way
that they respond straight to the D (which I can see happening)
without us getting a chance to review for accuracy / spin.
Insist it go through the DD. Then I'll give it to you.
Well I think we start by trying to insist it go thru CD. We'll see. I just
envision them being whiny about it unless they have something
already written. _
They won't. I guarantee it.

Hope springs eternal. I suppose I could ask
on the DL
And yes, obviously I agree about it going thru cd first. Was just
saying if they balk, there's no way rybicki wouldn't insist on it
coming to us first. _
Is that something doj would ordinarily keep good records of? Or
will this be a lift? _ _
If there are so few that someone like^H would literally be able to
recall them then you have much bigger problems.
Description might be hard. But I guess we'll see.
The fbi can come up with description
20 years is a long time...
I'd like to make a suggestion though. I DO NOT think you should
ask^^^J. I think Bill should ask George. is just going to
bitch and moan. George sees the d three times a week. He is not
going to say no. _
They won't be able to do that. No way. But let THEM come back to
rybicki about what they can or can't do. _
Fine but then George tasks them and they ask me...when am I
supposed to mention it? Seeing as how I own this program and all.
Pete. I'm trying to save you some crap from them. Don't get your
back up about it. When they ask you, you talk about it. What's the
big deal? All they are going to do when you tell them is wait to
hear from on high. So all I'm saying is start there.
Look, I totally get what you're saying and agree with you. Just
trying to figure out how best to own my program _
Ha. \U0001f60a See, my back's not up. Just trying to find the best
way to play this.
With this one, coming from the d, just let it trickle down from
higher. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if George hears it from andy in
the morning. _
Sounds smart

Just you
J
Yes just me with Bill
I'm sure it's all good.
I'm guessing some combination of the economic Espionage cases
on 60 Minutes and tc
Yeah, that makes sense. I'm glad he has you. And that he knows
how lucky he is that he does. _
I'm also frustrated that I have to spend three and a half hours in a
trp session for things that are already decided. We waste too much
time on this process. It's important to do, but not this long, and not
this c omplicated. _
HHl| I am so mad at^^^J right now. He's claiming
reimbursement for car for 14-28 April (Conf authorized 18-22),
lodging in Auckland 16-17 (Conf was in Wellington), m&IE in
Auckland 14-16.\n\nl mean wtf. Have some sense, man.
Do Not Let Him!
That's really outrageous.
I'm not going to. I've got to call him today. Since he didn't get
business, he's entitled to a delay in route of one night, 3/4 days
M&IE on each day. I'll let him explain that to me, though. \n\nThe
rental car, no.\n\nOh, this was all in conjunction with his wife.
Didn't use Carlson, "Contacted Carlson and determined there is no
contract carrier to Nz. Due to this fact, and to ensure my wife could
travel with me at am acceptable cost, I booked through other
means." _ _ _ i
In defense of his airfare, what he paid is much less than the Carlson
fare.
I DO NOT WANT TO ATTEND THIS\n\nGrump grump grump
You already leave? \n\nAlso, need to to let me in toH|
office
can only do 4 or any time later. You want to try for 430,
recognizing you have wrap at 5, or keep at 4? _
Give me a call when you're done, I am in hell
Andy headed up. Told him you sat in conference call
I made wrong decision on which meeting to attend. Read in was
HORRIBLE.

Hey sent you some email going around this morning. Don't know if
you noted one of them from last night, ^ said never
responded to his email for update. We're talking in an hour, I'm
going to encourage him to speak to Andy and about it, that
it's undermining his position and effectiveness (to Andy) and that
it's unprofessional (to^^^f). Obvious problem is its not easy for
anyj to say that to the DD, nor personality. \n\nThe best
way may simply be for him to say to Andy, you know, 1 contacted
to follow up on the D's request and he didn't so much as
send me an email, even to tell me he was going to talk to you. Let
Andy infer the right leadership action / response.

I'm REALLY angry about the consent letter right now. Much worse
than last night. \n\nlt's the little things, like her writing no agents
will participate in the otd review. That sense of entitlement about
how we staff is the result of Andy not simply saying "no" to doj
about the obnoxious filter staffing demand

|£fl\n\nMoffa said, "you threw a brush back pitch, didn't even hit
him, he throws off his helmet and charges the mounds."
Bottom line in their first counter offer DOJ is giving up a ton. I said
fine, we can live with this, but this is about the most we can live
with. So if you expect an extended back and forth with^^J don't
give so much right out of the gate. _
In with Andy now.
Cool. Just sent you email you should note to him. My (and his)
recollection was right;) _
Hey Bill is here in my office, talking about WSJ thing
Kortan just came in. I have more. I'll call you from the car.
Ok. Anything to pass to Bill now, or that he should call andy? He
thinks we should play for time.
Yup. Why? You mean with andy?
Nope. Me and you. \n\nBut yes, I wanted to ask later about with
Andy _
Btw, Andy said let's hold in finding out the answer for now.
I want to know, have been talking about it with jon for a couple of
days. You think I should wait? I don't know what we could do with
it, but it seems like an opportunit

Amd did you see request to move meeting up 30 minutes? I
kind of like 10-1130 but I think I can... _
No, nothing additional. That was everything.
I can too. Np.
And man, EVERYONE'S angry. WF doesn't want to give people back
for filt er, radio silence from DoJ,^^J angry about the consent
jetter^_
Yikes! Have a meeting with D at 11 because apparently I'm the only
one read in to a program (nfi) _
How can you be going to brief on something for which you have
nfi? _
Call her now tell her andy is calling please.
Just talked to her she is at her desk - not cell - waiting for the call
He called trisha instead -1 gave him both numbers. Don't know
wha t came of the c onvo.
Ew.^^^ better prepared
I talked with Bill; he had spoken with Andy but Andy had not yet
tried to re ach out for Jim _
Does^| know?!?!? I told her to wait...\U0001f61e
I know, I tried. But in case she was in the metro or something I
wanted him to be able to reach s omeone else. _
She does. She should be calling you for^^^^ cell number.
And god it's really infuriating that^J doesn't answer his phone.
The goddamn Deputy is trying to reach his| and can't!
Hey I just talked to her
Apparently a bunch of emails going arouns
Yup just sent to you.
She said JB hadn't responded and wondered if she should send to
Andy or wait for her chain to. I told her to respond direct to Andy

Yes otd is ready. \n\nD is the one who asked how early we could
talk tentative scheduling. D asked if we could do that now (at date
of last brief). I said I thought we should wait until we had laptops in
hand. D said, I think that's right. Thats what I was going off of
Okay, let me text andy.

Yes, he knew that. That's why he called. I just asked him whether
he wants to wait until we actually have eyes on docs.
Also, what I discussed with^^H was don't discuss specific
dates, but throw the willingness out there, tell if we find a
lot of material on laptops we might need more time
I just andy to call your cell if he has more qs.
Andy said:\n\nl am inclined to wait for now. Let's get a peek at it
first, see how long oyd thinks it will take to make sense of
anything, etc. _
Just talked with him, all good
K. Thanks
Hey talked with him just now. Pis give me a holler when you're
done, want to ensure he knows I'm not questioning what he wants
to do, just explaining why we proposed reaching out
Okay. It just started so it is going to be a while
Np. I think we're good, but I just ran thru what D said. Agreed with
Andy that smarter thing is to wait and see what's on there but
likely no way we hit summer solstice if we do that.
Funny, I'm sure it's perfectly fine but got that funny feeling telling
the DD that the D said something different from him. Andy noted
he told that we wouldn't schedule interview until laptops
were reviewed and D didn't have that info, then said he'd take care
of D.\n\nl just don't want him thinking that I felt he needed to
explain himself to me. _
I really wouldn't worry about it, but yes, of course we can talk.
I know you're right but still. Besides, I want to congratulate each
other once we get these dammed things _
Also, funny, mentioned to Andy what was going on, Toscas had
already updated him. \U0001f612
I know you've heard me complain a thousand times, but that sh*t
fromKILLS me _
The DD also calls you directly. This
whole case is fucked up. It is what it is.
Got the laptops :)

I don't know that you should wait until Monday to send it. Sleep on
it and send tomorrow? Or maybe Sun morning for something to
reflect on in services. _
Ok (re Andy) \U0001f636
Yeah, I'll either send late tonight or tomorrow. I just need to figure

out whether how^^^J spells her name.

I'm torn between their achievement and the reality of the
limitations it places on others. All of that separate and distinct
from the bigoted hatred of half (it seems ) of our population.
Dude. THESE GIRLS ARE THE VALEDICTORIANS IN THEIR CLASS.

I'm saying the difference between equal opportunity and equal
outcome is hazier as you get closer. _
THESE GIRLS DIDN'T EVEN HAVE AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY! What
are you talking about?!
I'm not saying they didn't deserve it. I'm saying their background
gave them an advantage the upper class white boy didn't get
Is that fair?
We're not talking about south Asians in the same socio-economic
class. _
They earned it. But so did lots of others.
And I'm not talking about these two. I'm talking about the pros and
cons of considering anything other than merit for admission.
No it f-ing did not. Their background gave them an advantage?!
They grew up in a home, in all likelihood, where their parents were
illiterate. Probably wholly uneducated. Undoubtedly poor. Yeah,
those lucky girls who got to bubble in "Mexican."
I get that would further slash minority representation.
I'M TALKING ABOUT THESE TOO.
Sorry, I'm really mad.
And you ARE talking about these two. You said their background
gave them an advantage that upper white kids didn't get and that
is completely BULLSHIT. _
Yes, their background did. They deserve to go, as do thousands of
others
If they were the valedictorian and we undocumented and had the
same story, I dare say they'd be going the same damn place.
That is bs. And I agree with that. That is fake diversity, and we both
know that. Don't you dare lump these girls, who on top of
everything else, had the courage to state that they were
undocumented, in with^^H kid.

And hey, 3) I have an answer for interview location. Brilliant. (Jon
thought of it). Completely handles the issue. _
On September 13, 2007, Martin appeared on Comedy Central's The
Colbert Report to discuss Mother Teresa's fifty-year sense of
abandonment by God which had much coverage in the media at
the time. Martin appeared several more times on The Colbert
Report, once to discuss Pope Benedict XVI's visit to the U.S. in
April, 2008,[8] and again on February 23, 2009 to discuss how
poverty (or, at least, reducing the importance one places on
material goods) can bring one closer to God.[9]\n\nOn March 18,
2010, Martin was invited to the program in the wake of Glenn
Beck's suggesting that Catholics run away from priests who preach
"social justice."[10] Martin noted that "social justice addresses the
things that keep people poor" and "asks you why are these people
poor." He added that "Christ asked us to work with the poor.... In
the Gospel of Matthew He says that the way that we're going to be
judged at the end of our lives is not what church we prayed in or
how we prayed but really ... how we treated the poor."

Yeah not a big deal - was supposed to in PDB today but will run

allegedly according to our PDB people, who may be dramatic) that
she didn't get her question answered before the follow on briefing.
ambushed me...\U0001f612\n\nWill call when out
Much better numbers for you :D
Hey see email. Can you call me? Q which will have to go to Andy
Now we're talking about Clinton, and how a lot of people are
holding their breath, hoping.
DID YOU TELL HIM THAT YOU ARE THE LEAD ON THAT CASE?!
Andy just called me with a question that I should remember from
my doj days and don't. Makes me frustrated. Will need to look it
up tonight. _
Just can't remember what kind of contact is permissible once a
subject has lawyered up pre-charges. I know an ausa can't contact,
but I thought a source still could. Usao and doj are saying no, and I
seriously can't remember. _
But hasn't been charged? I think we have much more latitude than
attys do, provided we don't coordinate (which I think triggers
McDade stuff). But I'm far less an authority than you. I do think we
can use sources, though. Call a good cdc, they'll know. Sadly I can't
p oint y ou to one ajt^f_
Yes, that's my recollection, but I just don't remember.
Oh god yes. No good can come of that. Your dad know you're
heading up the case yet?
Well you may not come back if they go
video route, right?
Video, no. I just doubt that is going to happen.
I hope not (re video). But it's clear that's how JR is pushing
Andy's not. That's got to be equal sway, at the very least.
Nor Bowdich. Nor pretty much anyone else as best I can tell. Thats
got to count for something.

Yup. Pretty much as soon as we tell usao, we are prohibited from

And you should ask^| about Harbach soon before it is too late
and he ne ver speaks to you again._
I'll ask U, though funny thing is I think he will be ok with it, just
like he was the Mills preamble. Because both this and that are
reasonable and help the cause _
Meanwhile I'm sitting here spinning in my head about the case.
Angry at myself for not thinking about raising Judiciary and Intel
committees. I have in the past, but the time to do it was yesterday.
Clearly the man is, though. Just feels like I dropped the ball.
And the more I think of it, no way the D or DD should call ICIG.
Delegate that to Bill. _
Remember at the beginning of the case, Randy was delegating
contact with him to^^f and Jon...
That's great advice but they all kind of tumble around in there
together, inseparable. \U0001f615\n\nThe interview needs
tweaking, the 302s need a fine edit, the summaries need to be
written, I need to see what I did wrong or forgot or put off and not
do that again and I need to do background for the job application,
combination of I'm perfect for the job and not good enough and
not going to get it and and and. _
You're probably not going to get it. But that's not because you're
not good enough. That's because of the egos of other people in our
organization. So we'll try the best we can, and know that you'll get
it eventually. _
I'll be retired, eventually. Certainly well before I get to AD, if I have
to spend the time in each job that miraculously doesn't apply to
the chosen few. But I need my CT club card to do that.
In fairness, you've been a SC for four months. We'll do our
research, but I think you're going to be hard pressed to find even a
CT SC who was promoted that quickly. _
I will have completed five months by next weekend and be into my
6th month _
Grumble grumble grumble. Look. I'm responsible for all the career
choices I've made. And as you've pointed out, I wouldn't change
them.^^^^^^^l for making me understand and own and see
that as a positive, \n\nl just get really angry and dispirited at seeing
less (frequently MUCH less) competent leadership advance. Case in
point: who's my new boss? Who are all these great SACs with Cl
backgrounds?
Ok I'm done. I'll put in for jobs I want and work hard and well no
matter what happens.

And dang it, I'm hoping to catch Rybicki to throw out the Q. of

undertaking of the million reasons the answer may be "no," alas,
[without success. _
Did you end up telling Andy about what I told you about the
j stuff, or did Bill broach it?
\UQ001f6121. _
All his DADs and SCs sat there staring at their hands. ...someone
asked him why the change, he said that was for him to know....
Bill talked to him about it last night, i talked, to andy about it today
again. He is going to broach it with DAG extra week, but he wants
CD and CyD to have a plan for review.
Any intrigue on the MYE front? \n\nAnd damn it's going to be
miserable to have you away for a

Did you read the nyt write up this morning? \n\nThe interview had
been weeks in the making as law enforcement officials and Mrs.
Clinton\u2019s team coordinated schedules. Democrats also
hoped that holding the interview on a holiday weekend might ease
the anticipated storm.\n\nln a telephone interview with Chuck
Todd on MSNBC after her meeting, Mrs. Clinton said,
\u201cl\u2D19ve been eager to do it, and I was pleased to have
the opportunity to assist the department in bringing its review to a
conclusion.\u201d\n\nAccompanying Mrs. Clinton into the
I meeting were her lawyer David E. Kendall; Cheryl D. Miils and
!Heather 5amueIson, longtime aides who are also lawyers; and two
lawyers from Mr. Kendall\u2019s firm, Williams & Connolly,
Katherine Turner and Amy Saharia.\n\nEight officials from the
1F.B.I. and the Department of Justice conducted the interview,
‘according to a person who was familiar with the substance of the
session but declined to be named because the meeting was
private. This person characterized the meeting as
\u201ccivil\u201d and \u201cbusinesslike.\u201d

Also think I need to ask for their gross negligence analysis -
he made a point of telling me last night that Rybicki had asked for
it (which is smart, there was a lot of discussion about it yesterday
which was helpful for the D> -1 think I'm going to be doing more
education than I anticipated
Sent that nyt article
I'm so sorry \n\nUnrelated, you're going to need to tell me to be a
little bit less of a control freak about the case. It’s out, there are a
hundred people doing things, and I'm not going to be able (or
need) to mana ge all of it and ensure its right.... _:_
Actually the case is over. So it's not yours to control
a nym ore._
Yes. I need you to say things like that, \u263a
You have time for a quick work call?

Pretty strongly in favor. As I said to doesn't mean we're perfect or
do everything right, but as a system of government, country of

But there's a difference between that and exceptionalism. Just look
at the word. It implies not only that we're great, but that you suck.
And that we are better and you should change to be like us. It goes
hand in hand with American arrogancism

My concern is the perceived delay of not doing it this week. A day

at my request due to not being available at the beginning of the

Are you going by yourself or planning to take others?
No, I told lim, me, just our leadership. Her group is
apparently too big to fit into a car. \U0001f612__

me to p ostpone it _
Yes Peter. That is my point. She has a whole team, all you need is
yours elf._
No, damnit, that's not it. I don't want to wait longer.
What I don't like about their behavior is knowing we were only
bringing leadership, they can't bring three to us?
But instead they'll fill the room to take notes on everything we say

perception. Thought you'd want to know

Thats fair.\n\nl think somt times it's not directed {or not meant to
be directed) at you, it's expressing frustration. 1 want to vent and
you’re the only place (because of both friendship and shared
knowledge of the email) that 1 can. \n\nl'm aware you probably
hear me in even those times and either don't need me to tell you
what I'm telling you, feel like I'm asking you do do something about
it, or both. \n\nAnd sometimes. I'm just looking for a little
validation. Yes, the Andy - George dynamic did cause some
problems. Yes, Jim in particular isn't always good at email distro.
Thats all.\n\nAnyway, all of this probably better talked about it
person, or not at all.\n\nl‘m tired of it, and 1 hate myself during it
(and 1 then remember you saying, well, at least you’re seeing it in

Just sent you i think a good way for

Should I forward leak article to baker and rybicki?The Powell stuff
was in her 302 an d Ihm, rig ht? Did we turn over his 302? _
Sure, but note that odd sourcing. It was in her 302; I'd want to
double check if we turned over his 302, though I'm almost certain
we did.\n\nAnd I'd bet the unnamed source is almost certainly
Powell. _
I'm just going to forward your email, so the sourcing ref is in there.
Sorry 1 have 20 minutes to get my shit together for dni
Shouldn't take that log. Let me pull data, should take 10 minutes
Good side effect of briefing this a million times.

My point is, that brief went super well. So even if you would have

Inquiry\n\nhttp://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/08/30/us/politics/har
rv-reid-russia-tampering-election-fbi.html
But Mr. Reid argued that the connections between some of Donald
J. Trump\u2019s former and current advisers and the Russian
leadership should, by itself, prompt an investigation. He referred
indirectly in his letter to a speech given in Russia by one Trump
adviser, Carter Page, a consultant and investor in the energy giant
Gazprom, who criticized American sanctions policy toward
Russia.\n\n\u201cTrump and his people keep saying the election is
ngged,\u201d Mr. Reid said. \u201cWhy is he saying that? Because
people are telling him the election can be messed with.\u201d Mr.
Trump\u2019s advisers say they are concerned that unnamed
elites could rig the election for his opponent, Hillary Clinton.

the requirement to capture texts came from omb, but we're the

Yeah, think so. Maybe Saturday night. We'll see.
If sets up the call the real test will be whether he sends
me the call in info. I am angry, Pete. \U0001f621 _
Just ask Andy, no? The problem is no one on that call has
knowledge of the case anywhere near you. Face was
utterly absent for it. Not saying he shouldn't be there, but include
Bill. And, obviouslv. vou.
Oh, I'll get the info. I just have a feeling I'm going to be left off

And re my last. I'd add that at this point the questions at this point
are organizational risk best answered by people with thoughtful

B) thing is, there are VERY inflammatory things in the 302s we
didn't turn over to Congress (because they weren't relevant to
understanding the focus of the investigation) that are going to
come out in FOIA and absolutely inflame Congress. I'm sure Jim
and Trisha and Dave and Mike are all considering how things like
that play out as they talk amongst themselves.

Hey, let me know once you've read email. How substantively
does it change what we want to to? Maybe not, if we want to avoid
a fight on this.
Trisha is going to be SO mad. Not only did Andy ask HER to
reach out, but she even told Jason in an email to us that she had
already reached out, but hadn't heard back yet. _
But no, I don't think it changes anything.
he might work himself out of

Btw, talked with Bill at length about (in the context of
going through what's going on). In a way that didn't burn any
source, he said he hasn't had any coordination on this, that he
never discussed (or wants) giving anything up, and that if anything,
ITC efforts should be located within one Branch with CD and CYD
and SecD. Said Steinbach also thought the same. Though of course

too hard on yourself. I'm sorry\n\nYeah it really sucked. At least Bill
did me the solid of not asking me, just called me and Dina in and
said. I’ve told them to post 3...essentially telling a SC the Div does
not have confidence in him to run the program.

This has nothing to do with Andy. 1 asked you to wait until it came
to you. You would have had no idea any of this was out there but
for me. And 1 already thanked you for your excellent advice, iust a

then rubbing a fucking nose in it.

Why do 1 send noteworthy articles at all, Lisa? Should 1 wait on all
of those? Should 1 treat ones accusing the FBI of stuff specially?
Hold those? \n\nYou never have had a SINGLE issue with my
promptness before. Typically, you appreciate it. This in no way
points to you. \n\nl'm so angry you'd accuse me of violating trust!

Yeah, and 1 told you a grand total of 2 minutes after 1 learned it was

And Devlin is saying, not implying there’s a connection here, but
look at the timing - server, then meeting, then case, then funding.
The point we need to highlight isn’t the March date of discovery of

Yeah, bill and to scare talked about getting subs.
I suppose I'm okay with cancelling bob. Just this once.
Bill just called to say George called Bill for an update. Bill tap

tomorrow and come up with an answer. _
Also a dad is not updating twice a day. Thanks, but no.

Leaking information about ongoing investigations. Which is
incorrect information. By agents who don't know about things

God, the mye letters re Andy ask for SOOOOOO much information.
\U0001f621\U0001f621\U0001f621_
Can we tailor what we send, ie, give them some subset of what
they're asking for?
We're going to have to.
Oof. Which letter (s), (or tabs in the binder)?
I'm going to meet with Andy at 5:30 about it.
And all good on both prep sessions tomorrow :)
Haven't met with andy yet. He is still in with the director.
How long you think you'll be with him? (Rough guess - 30 min?
Hour and a half?) _
Probably 45 minutes at least.
Sorry. Was in with andy.

Had an hour long convo with Bill. Talked about the meeting (they
had it at DoJ, Bill, Jim and Jon), expressed our frustration, Bill
responded. \n\nTalked about and WFO SAC job, what I
expected, and >aying which is fine, you know the
conflicted way 1 feel about that but it is what it is. Mike said
something super irritating to Bill, essentially, Pete briefs well but
he needs more time to demonstrate his ability to manage. Bill
said he thought that was just a fig leaf for saying out it
aggravates me. I'm sorry, I'm not briefing what someone tells me,
I'm briefing what I'm doing. And I'm managing (for the case) a ton
of people in various divisions and multiple agencies and foreign
governments. Not to menion the issues I've briefed you on and
am managing for cd3, etc. \n\ni do think it's a fig leaf, but have
the balls to say, Pete, you're doing a great job. Keep it up. Youve
just gotten promoted, twice, and we need you as a DAD where
you can do good: embrace that role. DON'T tell me, you brief well
but you need to show me some more management skill. F you. 1
manage my ass off every goddamn day in this sh*tstorm, and

I know, but I told Bill I really needed him to determine whether or
not I should even put in, and the message it sends either way. He
said he would talk to Andy this week. _
It won't. Stop worrying. Trust me.\n\nlf you had more time as
DAD under your belt, do you actually think would even
stand a chance because of some bs claim that you need more
proven leadership? Because that happened when you both were
up for DAD? Come on. It's face-saving for pure and simple.
The answer is no, Pete. 100% no. Andy will say the same.
)f Thus came up in the context of bill asking about a

/ould be a different answer for So I need to talk to

Even an SESer over a year doesn't change three month as DAD.
It's not long enough in your current role. And christ, you're NEED
in this role. Way more than you'd need to be as SAC. Just relax,
It will come. I promise you. _
I'm not needed. I need to show I can effectively manage.
\U00 01fG12_
Wish wouldn't have said anything about that, or called
BS
Cause this is going to sit in the back of my head like a festering
pile of crap. _
Peter. In the immortal words of Jim Baker/Taylor Swift: Haters
gonna h a te...shake it off, shake it off. \U0001f60a _
Don't let it. Do you respect
And how did that guidance work for you?\n\nEnough. I thought at
least we had a decent relationship he would say that sort of BS. I
get his faults, but still. Just say the truth. _
He's too arrogant. He can't see the truth.
I haven't worked closely with him enough to see that
And maybe vaguely related, man I'm angry the way worked
out. That article is horrible. _
Oh please. I'm calling BS on you respect him. I don't. What non-
critical thing have you ever had to say about him?\n\nAnd yes,
probably related. \U(J0Ulf512 _
A) I think he does a decent job advocating for CD in front of
audiences like the SAC conference. _
Okay, great. Mad props to him then. \U0001f612
A) fine. Look, I'm obviously cranky/stung/demotivated by it.
Just talked with Jon for an hour.
Back to being a little cranky with Bill about the meeting. Jon asked
Bill on Thurs if it was still on. Bill told him to talk to him Fri AM.
Jon said JB was really good at the mtg, kept saying, we don't know
or we're not going to discuss that. He's obviously as worried as he
was. _
Plus remind me stories of iod f'ing up visit with Andy and
I can talk if you want. Have 10 minutes or so.
I can't. Check email.
Though I desperately want to \U0001f636

Literally wondered if Andy had finally decided to delegate down
management of George _
I kinda want to print these logs out and take them home :D
No kidding. Will figure out a day to work late.
Ok, I need to go back in with Bill. Jen and Dina still there. Call me

convo^with Brennan_
Shocker, problems in ny.
It you get done and have Bill and Jon tor a dump about last eve,
please call me....
Sorry one sec.
K. Talking with Bill about you, actually
Hmmm.
Just called your desk
Was talking to bill. He is calling me back when he is done with
you. _
Let me know what he says. I was surprised how hard he pushed
me to think about it. The strength of my reaction to that is kinda
confirming to me I don't want to. _
Oh god Susan Collis comments on npr....
said absolutely no question I have to be on the team. I'm so

And that's what I wanted to talk about!!!!\n\nMy answer is no
way, sac then AD and lead the Division _
And then I think..
A case which will be in the history books. A chapter - much like
you tell me about my extra time in the field and all the cases
("would you trade it"?). \n\nA million people sit in AD and staff
jobs. This is a chance to DO. In maybe the most important case of
our live s._
What did Andy say about going?
No way dude. I really don't think you should do it..
You would obviously excel on the team, \n\nln a thousand ways
they n eed someon e EXACTLY like you _
I don't really know what she meant when she said on the team.
Full time, part time, I got home so our convo was cut short.
Why? I don't understand what they need me for! Not when they
have someone like Aaron. Or or
And oaid some really outrageous complements to me. I just
don't get what she even means.
Ok I obviously want to hear what said
I won't be able to repeat. Something about being the second
smartest lawyer she has ever worked with besides comey. It can't
b e true. _
And how I lean in and have a stronger work ethic than anyone she
k nows. And more but I don't remember. _ _
You're in an entirely different class than or
You see the future. You assimilate and combine things in am
uncanny way.
And re your attorney image of yourself, that's because you equate
brilliant lawyer with or Trisha sitting in a room writing
something as a clerk. \n\nREAL law is the application in a
complex, dynamic environment. And you're astoundingly good at
that
Plus you have passion and curiosity, which is more than half of the
battle anyway _^_
I am so not in a different class from and That is crazy.
They don't get the big picture like you do is operationally
amazing. But scaling law up rapidly and with agility is something
that makes you special. THAT'S the mark of a brilliant mind.
For me, and this case, I personally have a sense of unfinished
business, \n\nl unleashed it with MYE. Now i need to fix it and
finish it
What does that even mean, scaling up

Is Andy truly accepting of the fact of the potential limitations that
he may not be DD as long as he thought, and regardless, that we'll
have a new D, as all this unfolds?\n\nBtw, Bill said he heard some
guy in INSD was ranked #2 for the job. Someone we interviewed
for a SC job in CD and turned down. Truly I don't know wtf is going
on. Do I have cognitive dissonance?
Look, here's the bottom line as best as I can sum up (and I hope
you already know all this)\n\n-1 don't think Andy's acting in bad
faith. I do think what he hypothetically proposes isn't something
in his thought process or skillset or his available time and ability.
In other words, when JG or Randy or even Bob said they had a
plan, they had a PLAN. I don't think Andy does. And as A/D that's
something too small for him to worry about. To put a fine point on
it Wtf. Such a pin to the balloon of faith and confidence in
the system, \n\n-1 knew my standing with Comey and Andy. One
is gone, the other uncertain at best, \n\n-1 don't trust/believe in
my standing with Daveand Carl and the rest of the EADs.\n\n-the
SC is straightforward and rewarding, meaningful, honorable and a
known quantity. It would cement my image as the "special project
guy" or "glorified case agent" (nevermind they'll never see
that way for doing the same job less well). I guess I’m
feeling like I don't care about that right now. But it's not like i
have a long time left.
I understand all this. So what do you want me to say to him? Can I
lay out this thinking, attributes to me?_:
I don't know. \n\nMaybe i should sleep on it.\n\nMaybe, Pete's
uncertain, between Comey the he's reassessing if he should
just go?\n\nl don't know, Lis.
We can talk in the morning.
But I think that's a perfectly reasonable way to approach it.
Thank you \U0001f636
Sorry I don't have a ready answer here. I feel strongly - if
ambiguously - at the same time I want to represent myself at the
same time I don't want to be "that guy."\n\nNone of us are owed
anything. Except when I think of the last 18 months. \n\nAnd then
I think several of us ARE owed something.
Hi. \n\nThe only additional thought I had is it's not tenable to
have both me and :here. If he's in charge and I'm around, it
undermines him (because Mueller and Aaron will be looking to
me), it puts me in a horrible position, and it's a waste of Bureau
resources. I told Bill that, but in don't know that will get up from

Yeah, 1 definitely plan to do that.
I'm growing more doubtful about my role staying on. For the
same reason you're not absolutely essential once 30 or 45 days is
up, I'm not absolutely essential. You don't need someone to see
around corners and check for pitfalls when you have the most all-
star of all-star teams. I mean sure, might a catch a ball or two?
Maybe. But not like the value I add at HQ when it's mostly not aII-
slars._■
Thanks. Really curious to hear what he's thinking.
I hear you. But a couple of things. First, I really truly believe you're
not giving yourself enough credit for how good you are. Depends
on what you want. At the Bu, you'll be a superstar amongst
mostly not all-stars. There, you're a superstar amongst
superstars.\n\nSecond, be really honest, what is your future at
the Bureau? As long as Andy is A/D, you're in a weird place with JR
and I don't know what his future is when a D is confirmed.
Nor do I know Bakers future.
And in terms of launching into the private sector, it's FAR
On the flip side, I probably wouldn't want to be
not with
|Thi s is all true. But do I want this enough if my job is
I honestlyjust don't see much of a role working for Bob/Aaron.
They don't really need me. I'm happy to shag issues, but I don't
really see that happening. Aaron doesn't give up much.
That's definitely true re Aaron. I don't know if you'll be part of the
true inner core, especially when they're fully staffed. Nor whoever
the lead fbi person is. _
So then what am I doing there? Just padding my resume?
Doing something meaningful, historic
And yes, making contacts and superbly positioning yourself for
whatever comes next
Meh. Not if I'm the least impressive among the most impressive
brains in America.
Sorry was reading Carrie Johnson tweet and thread about Andrew
being added to the team
Send it please? He must have told her - they're close.
Lisa. I don't think that's true. You won't be least impressive. You
(and/or i, if I go) will solidly hold our own. Thats more than
enough for you when it's all done. And that group will forever take
take of itself. Look at the Enron crew._

Or you mean the daily 5s?\n\nlf it makes you feel any better, I've
had no calls and no emails since Aaron yesterday at 530.
The daily 5:00s.
Oh. Have those started?
I haven't heard anything about them. I was just going to show up.
asked me where I substantively want to land on the team. I
just don't know the answer. Maybe under Andrew on
At least I know him. _
How did you find out? From him?\n\nThough I confess this is
steering me fi rmly on to th e sta y th e cours e path. _
I'm guessing you haven't been invited because they don't want it
to be if you leave. Yea, the y ha pp en every day. _
I'm at SC. Had a mtg with az, and at 1:30.
Is "chief of staff" or "assistant to Aaron" tenable? \n\nAaron told
me they were going to have them. Just hadn't heard they had
started.
Any agents around?\n\nl'm telling you, this may cement it for me.
He asked to start coming to them at the end of our
meeting._
Any indication to you about whether or not he wanted you there?
In the ofc? No. But that doesn't mean. They're not working at hq.
I'd do or If you can't do some
leadership elemen t thing _
He certainly didn't tell me to start showing up, so I didn't ask.
I still think it's ultimately OK for you even if you're on the bench.
But you ego's gonna need some TLC. _
Yeah, tell me about it. \U0001f614
Think of it this way - coming down off of DD staff to this is a HELL
of a lot better than coming down to OGC somewhere....
But no doubt about it, it sucks. I can feel MY urge to want in, right
now, even though I'm in some non-committed tdy limbo.
How long are you staying? Will people be around if I stop by
before the Valor game? (That'll impress the hell.out of them!)
I'm at hq now, but JQ and AW are there.
I wouldn't be there for another hour, plus I doubt my card works.

I worry they think I'm too loyal to Andy or Comey, won't truly
trust me because of that. Maybe this will help.
I dunno.
I wouldn't worry about that
Just be you
That will be enough \U0001f60a\U0001f636
It hasn't been yet.
This is true. \n\nAnd I don't think it's that they don't trust you
because of Andy or Comey. I think they just don't trust, generally.
You will work your way in. Patience. _
And sigh. Ok. \n\nDon't worry too much about Mueller and
Aaron. You're gong to be ok. :) _
Just talked to Jim for 40 minutes. He's a good man. He strongly
thinks I shou ld go. _
He is an incredibly good man.
So did you ever get an invite to tomorrow strategy mtg? And
Aaron ever call you back?_
Yeah me too, re tired. \n\nAaron did call. Think it's still a little
early for the strategy meeting, so will just do the ops update
followed by the oca/OPA wrap _
I talked through what he'd envision were I to stay. I asked what
my role would be, especially in terms of the leadership group. He
thought i would be, but wanted to confirm with RM.
Looks like all hands svtcon Tues and strategy meeting eitherTues
or Wed.
He ask you to stay for oca/ops wrap?
Super.\n\nl'm glad for you at least.
INBOX
And morning meetings, but not tomorrow so he can run past RM.
He said those have been largely admin in nature._
So you joining the team? I need to talk to if so.
I don't know.
I told him I wanted to be part of the leadership team if I stayed,
because otherwise i didn't know if it would be worth it for
me.\n\nl think we do 30 and try things on for size, which I guess
was the plan an

My sense is ft will be. All of this is based on earned trust from
competence, anyway. I'd have the advantage of being the senior
bureau person, which also helps.\n\nl want to talk to you again,
obviously. I was surprised how strong and unanimous both JB and
Bill were. And if I do after all that, need to talk to Andy.
I don't want to go to sleep, because if I do, then next thing I'll
wake up and it will be time for work :( _
At least at a job in which you're wanted.
Hi there. They do want you, Lisa. Just gotta figure your spot.
Right
You going to talk to Aaron about it? Or just dive in and see what
o rganical ly develops? _
That's starting to seem a little pushy and desperate.
Yeah I agree. So the latter, then. I'm tellingyou, you'll prove your
worth a thousand times, quickly. \n\nGod there are like a million

A long time ago, so he probably doesn't remember. I'd guess
A aron. _
Ok now I'm not happy about the early morning doc delivery.
\U0001f62a\U0001f629 _
Aaron was under the assumption that you are in at 7:45 anyway,
did you not tell him that?_
That's sometimes aspirational, as you know. \U0001f60b
Ha. So you've got no one to blame but yourself. \U0001f60a
Double \U0001f60b
Hey do you have stuff to discuss at the 9:40 as well? Az seemed to
believe it was your meeting._
Ha. Not really but I'll come up with stuff. I said you had some
items (which is why I cautioned you last night to save some for
today) _
I didn't discuss any last night - but he thinks this is a you and he
meeting and I had to mention that I would be there too.
I specifically asked for the meeting in the context of you having
items to talk about that we didn't get to. I went through my list,
and we turn to the things you had, and I said I didn't know many
of them, and that we should all sit down and meet.
That's frustrating.

Just talked to Bill, who had talked with Carl. Bill *thinks* Carl has
spoken with Andy. Bill and are going to make the call to

see what's on there.\n\nNow going to go track down Aaron...
Bill mentioned EADs and above are gone tomorrow at some
leadershi p retreat \U0001f612. You going to talk to Andy? _
Frankly gotta say I'm curious what's been relayed to him...
He is going too. But yes, I'll try to talk to him before hand.

Have five things I don't have the figures for. Maybe I'll come back

I hope the meeting
between Aaron and Carl resolves some of my uncertainty / stress.
You shouldn't stay on, regardless of what happens.
You're right, of course. \n\nWhat are you thinking about you? No

I'm serious about you. Imagine the scene, head held high at the 30

Had the same thought when you sent me I don’t
want a significant portion of my time spent tracking down stuff
that should have been sent, or included, or invited, on behalf of

Exactly. I honestly think it is an easy decision, regardless of what
comes next at Fbi.

Yup, join the club.

Hey you still at lunch or OSC? Have a sec?
Hey there, sorry. Will be back at my desk in 2.

Just call? Everyone is going to be walking up before the 3.
Ok lync
Sorry, I've been over at SC since about 3:15.
Definitely had to fight back tears with
I just don't know what to do, Pete.
Gmail you something?
almost with Aaron.
Been talking to Bill since we got off the phone. He really thinks
insult go, provided I can be I'm the room. I told him about tonight
and that I just didn't see that happening. _
Nevermind re gmail
And again I return to the fact that you are having an hour long
conversation about whether you should go is completely asinine.
You misunderstand. I walked in there in the first thing I said was,
I've decided I shouldn't go and don't want to g o._
Bill then asked if I wanted to trade with him.
I know, \n\nl just dug the email draft out of deleted items and
sent it.
Thanks. \n\nSaw your politico article too. God help me I don't
think I can take much more of this. _
I know
Hey. See Aaron's email. My guess is that is intended to exclude
me, but let's discuss before you say anything. _
I didnt see you on the cc line (thanks Samsung \U0001f612) and
already told Aaron I would right now. I'll hedge in the wording and
say there may be adds/drops, \n\nl'm sure this came about in the
discussion I had the door closed in my face\U0001f621
Or because of the nyt story saying that SC seems to be pursuing
potus in light of these interviews. _ _
Wp had it first. And it's as likely to be leaking.
All of which I would have walked through, if I had been in the
room. Because, you know, media leaks and what I do for a living.
